Above are the blocks completed this week for the 100 days 100 blocks with Gnome Angel (Angie) using her Maple & Eucalyptus pattern. My block 24 looks different from everyone elses but I like mine better. I started substitute other colors to get more contrast in the block. Still using the Sunprint 2023 collection from Alison Glass and its coordinating solids.

Afterthoughts

I definitely lost all that momentum I had earlier in the month. Now it is a daily struggle to get my blocks done. I am starting to get antsy as I would like to work on other projects besides the two SAL. We will see if I can make it all the way through July before I jump off the band wagon. LOL!

I wish everyone the best of luck with your projects this week!

  1. I like your 100 days 100 blocks! I just looked at the pattern, and it is beautiful. So are you doing yours in the gradation shown on the pattern? LOL on that cat-zoom meme! Good luck with staying with your daily SALs. 😉
