Last week was a week of ups and downs. We cut short our camping trip - just too much rain and headed home, which was good because I could sew. The next block for Echo by Bryan House Quilts had been released while we were away - I made two sample blocks for part 5 (top right) and didn't like them! When I started this quilt along I knew I wanted a black background and I planned to have a small bit of black in each block. That worked well for the first two blocks which will be the centre of the quilt, then I forgot - even though I had written it down on my planning notes. When each block is released a month apart, I forget what I'm doing, so blocks 3 and 4 didn't have any black. Then when I remembered and added black to block 5, I thought it looked terrible.
So I made another two sample blocks without the black and I think it looks much better.
My leaders / enders are the red and white borders for my Old Town mystery quilt by Bonnie Hunter.
