I can't believe it is the end of August, kids are back in school and Labor Day is quickly approaching. In the beginning of summer, I started a 100 day challenge to make 100 dress blocks based on the book, The Hundred Dresses. It wasn't easy making sure I took time each day to make a dress but I persevered and realized that I'm on my last 9 dresses! I also realized that I haven't blogged since July!
Many dresses were stitched since then but I will only post a few here. If you want to see all of them you can see them on my Instagram or Facebook posts.
All the fabrics used in the dress blocks are from fabrics in my stash.
To involve others in my challenged, I asked those that wanted to vote for their favorite dress/girl. Several friends on Instagram and Facebook voted each week. It was interesting to see how varied everyone's choices were. This was a fun project with just a week to go!
What else have I've been doing?
I finished my quilt based on Denyse Schmidt's class, The Proverbial Quilt. See my previous post. I will take photos over the Labor Day weekend. Stay tuned.
I made the August blocks for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC)! August color is Aqua/Turquoise blue.
I finished the Scrappy Meets Thrift Challenge top. It is next in line for quilting!
Finally, my daughter and I spent last Friday indigo dyeing. Here are my results!
Another fun day of craftiness!
