Edited to add to Sarah's Whoop Whoop Fridays! Thanks Sarah!
February’s color palette and my fabric choices. I have to say I love these colors!
I shared my ADD moment with New York Beauty blocks here. I’ve added two more blocks to the collection and plan to make enough for a wall hanging eventually.
Seriously, there are issues with me and completing projects lately. So just to call it a wrap, here’s a coaster! A little mindless piecing does a body good.
This is the palette for March. What do you think? These are not colors I’m drawn to or would think of putting together, but that’s the point of the challenge after all.
There was another birthday in the family. I’m the mother of a 30 year old! Amber made cake pops for herself:) Poor guy has a bit of a deformed eye, but he tasted fine! So did his buddies.
The birthday girl!
I love your coaster and your blocks!
ReplyDeleteThirty must be the new 20, because Amber does not look her age! (Nor do you, so maybe it's genetics.) Hope she had a happy BD!
ReplyDeleteOh, how I heart your NYB blocks in those colors! I wouldn't have been drawn to those colors either, but they sure look fabulous together. I really like that top left block with the dentil molding thing going on with the green, and the inner spikes inside the purple semi-circle. It really pops! And congrats on the cute coaster. I know what you mean about being finishing challenged. Last month was a total non-finish month, and not a whole lot started either.
Wow, I really like your NYB blocks. I especially love that bright purple.
ReplyDeleteLove the NYB blocks and great color challenge piece.
ReplyDeleteyour NYB blocks are gorgeous! I'm doing NYBs for Feb as well, but they won't be done until April or so :)
DeleteLove both the New York Beauties and your little coaster!! Great colors! I am looking forward to March...love the richness of the reds!
ReplyDeleteWow!!! Hip hip hurrah for the birthday girl (and she's really beautiful!!!) and hip hip hurrah for the recovering of your brother!!
ReplyDeleteI always love the NY beauty blocks and yours are terrific! I'm with you for the March color Palette: not my piece of cake, but, as you said, that's exactly the point :)
I love your little coaster and you new york beauties are stunning!
ReplyDeleteI am glad your brother is doing good! Your Challenge blocks and Coaster ate fabulous! Nice color choices and work! Great pops too something I am not willing to try (might eat them!)
ReplyDeleteNew York beauties--ooooh how gorgeous they are!!
ReplyDeleteThose NYB blocks are awesome! I love looking at them, but probably will never make one myself - so I'll just enjoy yours vicariously! Glad to hear your brother is doing well, and tell your daughter happy birthday for me!! Whoop whoop!!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to the birthday girl! Cake pops are such a fun way to celebrate. Glad to hear your brother is doing better too! That must be a relief.
ReplyDeleteLove love love your NY beauty blocks! They are a perfect way to showcase that palette you put together. The March palette makes me think of fall with the darker hues, but it's a fun mix.
Happy Birthday to Amber!
ReplyDeleteI like the colors in both challenges but agree the figs are my prefered.
Your February blocks are so beautiful! Can't wait to see what you do with the March colors!
