I haven't been able to really play in my REDS yet this month, which is a shame because I love RED! - hopefully next week I'll get to start on RED Hootie. But I can share my RED Soul Searching block with you today because I actually made it several months ago when I had to wash my REDS for another project.
So - Ta-Da!!!
(Did you know that "Ta-Da" means "There it is" in French? I didn't either until Sara told me.
She's taking French in school, a language I always wanted to learn -
but it wasn't offered in my high school back in the Stone Ages LOL!)
Maybe you can see some of these wonderful RED fabrics better in this close-up?
I love this block!!! It's huge, so you get quick rewards for your work! The quilt is almost ready to put together - just the ORANGE block now to be done!
Share your RED creations with us over at SoScrappy today!

Hugs & Blessings!

Hehe...trying to get orange for September are you? It would help with those halloween orange projects =). Great block. Looking forward to Hootie in red.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic collection of reds (and black and whites). I especially like the Phillip Jacob's poppy fabric playing so well with the others.
ReplyDeleteGreat red block. Orange has gotten a lot of support. Maybe it will get moved up a bit....
ReplyDeleteLove those reds. And thanks for the little mini French lesson. ;-)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful red fabrics in your block. In fact, I have a few of those same fabrics--no wonder I like your block so much!
ReplyDeleteI think I have the Material Obsessions book with that block. I guess I need to dig it out because I've loved watching your progress. You have a lot of fun b/w fabrics!
ReplyDeleteI have the Material Obsessions book too, want to make all of them in there, they are all fantastic. I started a cogwheel where I am using old chintz curtains for the background. Wild and crazy but so much fun. It is hard not to pull it out and work on it, but I need to finish some other projects first. I also have to make the fractured quilt, just looks like a fun one to work on.
ReplyDeletelooks great! I didn't know TADA meant that, and I took 3 yrs of French in school. ohhhh C'est la vie!
ReplyDeleteLove these blocks and is going to be so stunning when all together.
ReplyDeleteLots of wonderful different red fabrics.
ReplyDeleteSaw you at Assembly Day but didn't want to interrupt your conversations. Wasn't Jenny great? I cut out early and missed the afternoon speaker -- just too hot without AC.
ReplyDeleteLove this block, both the reds and the backgrounds - very vibrant.
ReplyDeleteYou do learn something every day don't you! Love your red block! So many great fabrics in it, including the black and white ones!
ReplyDeleteYummy reds AND b&w prints!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, beautiful red block and you have a piece of a luscious poppy fabric in there from one of my favourite designers!
ReplyDeleteTres bien! Je t'adore!
ReplyDeleteLove all the reds in your SS block. You have such a good stash of black and whites too. I took French in college, but I don't remember much of what I learned.
ReplyDeleteLovely and still drooling over your black and white stash!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, Teresa! Red rules!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great selection of black and white prints. They really help to showcase those gorgeous reds.
ReplyDeleteTeresa, you picked great fabrics for your bloomin' nine-patch, even if it was hard to do. I love that Sara is hooked on sewing, her pillow case looks perfect! And the the rainbow scraps block are just my cuppa tea!
ReplyDeleteOh my. Love this block. Going to be a wonderful quilt.
