Bloom Where You Are Planted - July 2014 BOM


Twenty! Make that twenty different fabrics. I bought two new ones to use as substitutes. I wasn't liking the fabrics provided in the kit.
 
I bought a purple floral and a green basket-weave.  You'll notice that the green basket-weave is the same pattern as the white basket-weave used for the background.

I really like the way this one turned out. It's brighter and it has better contrast. I think that makes the design of the block stand out better. It almost looks 3-dimensional, like a series of squares laid on top of one other. 

I am also very happy with the way the center pinwheel turned out. That's one of the things I wouldn't have known how to do without Marti Michell's instructions.
