Hello hello. It's March - and although March typically has us thinking green, I'm here with some Orange Pop for ya! Thirsty? I say pop. I grew up in Cleveland. Although my dad (from PA) was a big "soda" advocate, the local high school culture eventually converted me.) Month 3 of the Chocolatier Block of the Month Club is here and ready for the making.
Today, the Month #3 Block Pattern for Chocolatier is now available. Check your emails and mailboxes!
2 blocks again this month. We have the Louisiana block and the Framed Plus this month. Loving the way those oranges pop. Seriously, I can't get away from that word today. I really think orange is an underrated color. It has SO much potential. That shade of Cotton Supreme Solid called #209 Cantaloupe has me scoping my freezer for orange sherbet.
Block #1 Louisiana.
Block #2 Framed Plus. I ran into a little problem when I realized my rough sketch for this block included 3 shades of orange - and my fabric stack only included 2 plus the white accent. I decided to improvise and dig into my scrap bin to find a low key print (L's Modern from Lecien) that would jive with the solids. {heart}! omg, I'm so in love with how this came out. This was spontaneous - and now I'm not sure if I'm going to add a few other scrappy prints to the mix in my next blocks.
Fabric is Cotton Supreme Solids by RJR Fabrics for my version of the BOM. Find my color selections listed here.
