I am adding sashing to my stack and whack leaves . I usually will do anything to avoid sashing, ( I find it tedious), but these blocks need something in between them.

I like candy chains in yellow. I still have the 9 patch chaining blocks to do.
My 2 1/2 squares drawer is 60 squares lighter after adding borders to square play
While I was piecing the borders for square play, I grabbed my 2 inch drawer of squares to make 16 patches for square dance.

The leaves are beautiful, and the sashing is just what they needed.
ReplyDeleteYour leaves are going together nicely! I'm not a fan of sewing sashing either, but sometimes the blocks do need it. I really like the Square Play blocks - is that from the Quilted Twins site?
ReplyDeleteI like the choice of sashing - it brightens up those blocks. and your square dance - LOVE those - what fun!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a lot of fun with little pieces. I agree with you: those leaves need a nice sashing in between. I love the print you chose. Enjoy! ;^)
ReplyDeleteYou picked a fun sashing fabric for the leaves. I don't mind sashing too much, just don't like the long ones if there are no corner stones. You made good progress on using up a few scraps.
ReplyDeleteThe sashing looks good on your leaves, but I feel the same you as you: I hate doing sashing. I really like the Square Play blocks & they seem a great use of scraps.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love the green sashing and golden corners for these pretty leaves! 60 + 48 fewer squares in the scrap boxes, yeah!! Well done making these colorful blocks.
ReplyDeleteI love the green sashing with the leaves, Maggie, as well as your cheerful yellow RSC blocks! Thanks for sharing with us at Monday Musings.
