February 2022 #focuscuttingsewalong roundup
Hello everybody! This month in the sewalong the theme has been Getting to Know You. I must admit I dislike the more abstract themes and I struggle to think of ideas for them. This month has also been pretty busy as my two older children both had their birthdays. So I didn't go as crazy as I did last month . I did, however, make 9 blocks on this theme, which is more than double what was asked for so maybe I am just on a productive streak at the moment. These blocks really do sew together much faster than the previous years ones. For Week 5, the prompt was Where I Live. I made two blocks for this prompt. For the first block, I was too tired to think of anything particularly creative, so I simply went with a house fabric, because I live in a house. It's not a very well put together block, and I may well remove and re-baste a couple of the kites at one point. But I do like the overall effect it creates, with the hexagon shape in the middle. The second block I am more pleased with....
