Part 5 of Reene's Medallion Block of the Month for the Quilt Now magazine involved some crazy patchwork and machine appliqued hearts.
Reene gave some choices for the crazy patchwork piece and I enjoyed playing a little with some of my machine embroidery stitches to fancy up the 'crazy' a little. In her magazine article Reene says "If you're not having fun with this technique, you're trying too hard!" and you know what, I think she was right! This was great fun!
Six of these quick pretties were to be made up as per this month's instructions and this is where I'm confused.
I now have 12 sixteen patch bargello blocks and 6 crazy heart applique blocks and I cannot figure out where's she's going next or how these all go together. Oh, do hurry up Issue 6!!!
Thanks for a fun one Quilt Now and Reene!
That Reene's a real bugger ;) Your blocks look fab! Not long to wait until the next issue ;)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous scrappy hearts! Love a bit of crazy patchwork! Jxo
ReplyDeleteLove the bright colours Sarah
ReplyDeleteThey all look gorgeous, I'm sure it will be lovely whatever happens next. I'm not sure if I could do a mystery quilt though, I think I like an overall plan!
ReplyDeleteLove all the different stitches you used :o)
