Blogger’s Block-A-Palooza – Block #9: Lemonade Stand

9:59 AM |

Yesterday, my Block-A-Palooza quilt got one square larger. This time it was with the pattern ‘Lemonade Stand’ from BlueNickelStudios.

Blogger's Block a Palooza - Block 9: Lemonade Stand

Here’s what my block turned out to be this time. I have introduced a few new fabrics (more purples and turquoise…just different batiks, and a black and white skinny striped commercial print from Moda) – and even a new color (the brown by the geese). I still have 7 more blocks to do so I’m want to be sure to spread out my fabric’s fairly evenly…we’ll see what happens in the end though!

Elaine said...: These are all so fun to see! I'm hoping to catch up and do this at some point. Out of curiosity, have you been using whichever fabrics you want for each block or do you try to follow their fabric pairings with your fabrics (e.g., if Blocks 1 and 2 used sunkissed fabric A, then you also used a "fabric a" in your blocks 1 and 2-- if that makes sense).; February 22, 2011 at 10:27 AM
PersimonDreams said...: Hi Elaine,

I have just been using whatever I want. If I was truly organized I could have matched them up but I didn't want to take the time to do that OR make sure that I had enough of each fabric to match them. This way if I run out of something I can just grab something else that will 'fit' with my color theme.

Hope that helps!
