I have been under the weather a big majority of the week so really have not go much sewing done.
The #6 was selected in Judy's UFO challenge on New Years so I dug out UFO #6 yesterday.
This was from a row robin that I was involved in with a several internet buddies several years ago.
So the challenge is to have this totally done by the end of the month. The lady bug blocks had buttons sewn on them so I sat last night taking those off. I will decide once it is all done if I want to sew them back on.
Today I will at least go through my stash and see what fabrics I have that might work with this. I am thinking maybe 3 strips between each pieced strip. Maybe a dark blue middle wide strip with a yellow narrower strip on each side of the blue.

Hope you get to feeling better soon. Very cute row quilt. I think the blue and yellow separator strips would work really well. What are you going to do for the borders?
Oh, I think your idea about the yellow and blue strips sounds great!
Looks like the UFO show is one the road. I wish you each successful
run at it. Judy is really on the ball. Stay with it Kathie.....
I like your idea, too, of the blue and yellow separator strips. Hope you feel better soon!
Will the blue and yellow be solids? The picture may not show exactly the colors but the top two rows appear dark. You may want to separate them. You might also try white instead of the blue or yellow. Or all three perhaps. I'd try to make the blocks pop and the separator strips be quiet. My number 6 is a real challenge as it will be the first in a series of wild fabric selections. Once I get the first block under my belt the rest should be easier. Have fun with yours. Sandi
Thats a cute quilt~! Feel better soon!!!
What row did I do?? I am thinking the flowers?? Funny how one forgets. I think your yellow and blue strip idea sounds good
Strips in between--sounds like a great idea.
How pretty!
