Capital T

This Capital T block is for the BOM our Friends in Stitching group is doing this year. It's probably obvious that I love Rouenneries so this will be a good way to use up some scraps. Because I want a scrappy look it took a while to do but I'm pleased with how it turned out.




I made some small pinwheel blocks with the leftover triangles. Looking forward to finding out what the next block is going to be.


Today I've been having a play with a Swanky honeybun ... (fun) and wrestling with yards of pink vinyl trying to make a shower curtain .... NOT fun!! Must be time to take Molly to the beach!
