January's Goal, for a year of lovely finishes
I have chosen as my January goal to finish a piano runner I am designing for the community ctr. where I live. Dimensions are 10" x 60". I have chosen a soft palate of browns, tans, creams and white with a pop of color in soft greens, gold and pink. I wanted a muted and soft background so that it would compliment most seasonal displays that might be chosen to be placed on it. the blocks I chose to use in it are the log cabin and the pineapple blocks. I paper pieced 6 log cabin blocks and 3 pineapple blocks. finished size to be 6" for each. I used the pineapple block to give it a "Pop" of color. The Border will be 2" wide and I have chosen a soft green print for it. I haven't decided on the backing fabric or color yet.
Oh, I see how the blocks are going together in the runner now. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteDiane this is a really lovely piece. I love both of these blocks but have never attempted the Pineapple Block. I know it's going to be loved by everyone who sees it! blessings, marlene
ReplyDeleteThanks Marlene, this is my 1st time with the pineapple block and I am in the process of making a tutorial on it for my blog here.
