Block #1 Bright Star for Jane Austen
Here's the post for the first block:
Block 2
Sister's Choice for Cassandra Austen
Georgann's been using my latest reproduction collection Richmond Reds
to make up the free weekly pattern. She's adding a few golds and yellows from her stash.
(I gave her my preview pre-cut package, which should be available in shops any day)
The colorways also feature browns and olives
but red is the theme.
Block 3
Cross Within Cross for the Rev. George Austen
Block 4
Thrifty with a toile from the scrapbag
Georgann's also adding toiles---after all, the block of the week series is about Jane Austen
who was born in the time of toile.
Block 6
Empire Star
Block 7
Philadelphia Block
Block 8 Eliza's Star
Block 9
London Roads
Block 10
Good Fortune
Block 11
Friendship
The center is another scrapbag toile.
Block 21
West Wind
We're up to Block 22, scheduled for this Sunday, and I'm working now
on digitally drawing the last patterns for the 36 weekly intallments, which will be posted
in November and December, 2014.

So nice to see Georgann's Austen blocks using Richmond Reds. Very nice! The toile in the center of block 11 is so wonderful.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blocks and a lovely choice of fabrics.
