Block #1 shoo fly blocks done

I was so pleased to get my fabrics earlier in the week, that I immediately cut into my It's a Hoot FQ pack to make the seven shoo fly blocks needed for block 1. Here's a picture of my blocks.



However I wasn't happy with the block I'd cut from the big patterned fabric (top right) so I made another block using a smaller pattern and will use the larger patterns for larger blocks and perhaps fussy cut the owls.



So I'm now catching up on some UFOs whilst I wait impatiently for:
Threads and needles from Sandy
Red spot and baby white moda marble from Fiona

    Well done Sue!! Changing the big print was a great idea - the new shoo-fly block will work so much better :-))
    Happy stitching, P

    I love these blocks, particularly the dark brown and yellow one, I cut into my It's hoot Charm Packs Friday night and made my very first dresden plate. I've cute wedges for 4 additional plates. Am in love with the fabric now though, so need to add to my stash!
