August blocks are yellow....because August is sunny and hot. the pictures in the middles all come from a piece of fabric that i found somewhere. i cut out the pics of the animals....it looked like scenes from a circus or a zoo.
Here is the first one that i decorated more for the Crazy Quilt Journal Project. can you tell there is an elephant in the middle? and there are little, tiny stars in the upper right corner...going across on the lace. in the bottom right corner by the embrodiered fern is a tiny bee. the piece above the elephant is a kind of woven canvas.
This block has 2 girls trying to feed a goat. how about that vine with golden leaves...reminds me of Jack and the Beanstalk. LOL
This one has a couple of zebras. above the zebras is a piece of cheesecloth...doubled. i found that at a thrift store...it was the skirt of a kind of voodoo doll. i do find some strange things.
This has a boy with a hoop. the upper gold 'chain' is a particularly thick type of braid. i love the lace flower basket. and those tiny orange and yellow flowers on the braid on the left is just cute.
Can you see the deer laying behind the fence...at least i THINK it is a deer. another cool lace medallion....with a tassle hung from it..... just because i could.
This one shows a girl with a hoop....perhaps she is playing with the boy. the top shows the last of my fringe that i used on my cowgirl shirt for a friend. and that little piece going across the left upper corner is the last of that ribbon.
These look to be grape vines growing on a pole. some glittery golden lace on the upper left and more of those orange and yellow flowers.
A boy standing on a bridge...looking at a swan. even more orange and yellow flowers...i have lots of that.
Can you see the monkeys in the cage? there are 3 ladies and a little girl watching them swinging around. just had to add the yellow and black graphic piece on the left.
I have so many trims and scraps...i'll bet i can make thousands more crazy quilt blocks. this quilt will have 108 blocks. so there will be many more crazy quilts. i think i will try black for the September blocks. i don't think i have done that color yet. we'll see how that goes...have to go dig out my black fabrics.
See ya...
