I was originally planning on using my 30's fabrics for it, but I just didn't have the right solid blue to go with my prints. So off to Hobby Lobby to check out their solids and nope they didn't have what I wanted either. Of course when you are in the midst of fabric you can't help but look around a bit, right? I found this brown print and orange polka dot and I couldn't resist. I knew I had coordinates that would work at home. I am loving it!! My leaves got a little skinnier than they were supposed to be. That is what happens when you do not read carefully and think you know what you are doing! I used the wrong size background sqs. but didn't realize it until it was too late. Oh well he just has skinnier leaves-it still works;-) Le Anne warns these are a bit addictive and I believe her, I wantta make more!!
thanks so much for linking up!

Those are so cute! I've been admiring them at Podunk Pretties, too.
ReplyDeleteToo cute. I do love the brown print for the flower pot quite a bit. Will you be making a quilt of these?
ReplyDeleteI think you are right. Those colors/fabrics are amazing! Great job!
ReplyDeleteThis made me smile, causing me to drool my afternoon coffee all over the front of my shirt. Its adorable! Thanks so much for the quilty love.
ReplyDeleteYup, visited Podunk earlier. I really don't have time for such an addiction but yours is darling for sure!!!!!
ReplyDeletePerfect fabrics for this block. It turned out beautifully. I'm planning on making 6 for my project and using my 1930 reproductions for my quilt along project.
ReplyDeleteThat is really cute. I can see why you want to make more.
ReplyDeleteThat is pretty adorable; I can see turning one into a tea cosy and giving it to my mum! I SO can relate to your sentence:
ReplyDelete"Of course when you are in the midst of fabric you can't help but look around a bit, right?" and get a bit lost...but it's such great therapy, no?
