Stay at Home Round Robin (SAHRR) 2026 Prompt One
Brenda of Songbird Designs gave us the first prompt for our SAHRR, which is Hourglass Blocks. I want to make sure I keep this quilt from getting too large (as I cannot quilt large quilts myself anymore), so I opted to make 2 Hourglass quilt blocks and place them on the sides only. Brenda placed her blocks top/bottom only and others may have gone all around the center block. I need to get this photo added to the Linky party on her blog and see what the others have done with this first prompt while I am there.

Love your sunflower and a great stitch around the center circle. I always wondered what those stitches could be used for.
ReplyDeleteYour hourglass units look so pretty with the sunflower!
ReplyDeleteYou don't have to respond to me, I have the same Blogger issues on my blog. Makes a girl wish fervently for a Wordpress blog!
that combo is perfect... colors balanced, angles balanced, I know what you mean about being able to quilt large quilts... me too. Great choices, LeeAnna at not afraid of color
ReplyDeleteI love your center sunflower! The pretty bright blue and orange of the hourglass blocks are a perfect start for framing it. The thing I enjoy most about the SAHRR QAL is that you can do what works for you!
