Sapphire Blocks

 I've finally completed the Sapphire Blocks for the Sparkling Stars Quilt.

The next thing will be to decide on the layout. Due to fabric resources I made 4 of the purple (amethyst) but 5 of all the others.....

Sparkling Stars - Citrine Blocks

 In March 2023 I made the Ruby, Amethyst and Emerald Blocks for the Sparkling Stars quilt from The Sewing Place.

After a long pause, I gave myself a nudge, and have now done the Citrine blocks

I've done them as neatly as I am able, which for now is good enough.

The yellow fabrics all came from my lovely Auntie Joy's quilting stash.

I still have the Aquarmarine and Sapphire blocks to do, but maybe a bit of garment sewing next.

For a chuckle I include the first picture I took of the blocks, only for a dear friend to notice the 'deliberate mistake?'. Once I'd seen it it was glaringly obvious so I had to upick and resew that section!

Here are all the blocks I've made so far.

Sparkling Stars - Amethyst Blocks

 I've just finished the four Amethyst blocks for the Sparkling Stars Quilt at TSP.

Sparkling Stars - Ruby Blocks

I am having a go at the Sparkling Stars Quilt on TSP. This was a BOM challenge in 2021 when I wasn't able to participate. So its better late than never here are my first 4 blocks. It should be 5, but I don't seem to have quite cut enough bits for the 5th block, hoping to rectify that shortly.

Updated to show its now 5 Ruby blocks.
