Block Party – Month 6

Block Party - Aug. 03, 2020 - Jessica OklaRoots

You've made it to August! Question: Do you consider August part of Fall or Summer? I know I know, it's technically a summer month. But, you can feel the anticipation of fall, right? Pumpkin spice will start showing up this month. Fall decor will start coming out. So..... I say forget seasons. Let's get our fall on!

Ok, now that I've made a few of you quite perturbed, let's talk about the block this month! I didn't realize when designing these blocks that I seem to prefer that central cross design. This month we're changing it up a bit with some teeny tiny triangles. The finished look is SO pretty, but all those seams and tiny pieces can be a challenge. So, as always, you are free to modify this block. In the video I'm showing you how to do that, how to build this block without templates, and how to prep your sashing and boarders. 

I hope your summer is ending on a high note! I know it's been a nutty year. But remember, the best season is coming. Fall will be amazing!

    Yay! I’ve been waiting for the new block!

    August is my birthday month and it is most definitely part of SUMMER. I used to be a summer hater, loving the cold. However, as I have gotten older I find that heat is more my cup of tea.

Need a quick break from the summer chaos? A lil mi Need a quick break from the summer chaos? A lil mini retreat in your sewing room? I got you 😘

This week we’re whipping up the Sun Spec Duo from @sewnideaspatterns and it’s one of those patterns you could make a DOZEN of in a day! Super scrap friendly, great for beginners, and one of the most useful gifts you could give.

This cutie can easily hold two pairs of glasses, preventing any scratching, and even has a third pocket for extras! So smart!

Have fun making this!

The last of the cotton woven destash and it’s all The last of the cotton woven destash and it’s all CUSTOM FABRIC GROUPS 😱 Some of these prints are impossible to find anymore. And as much as I really love all of them, I just don’t use them enough. Time to stop hoarding and pass them along to someone else who will actually make something. 

These bundles (we call them the Cotton Woven Mystery Scrap Pack on @shopoklaroots ) will be added to Shop OklaRoots dot com today! Each bundle is completely random, but we did make sure to give a good distribution of themes. 

Enjoy!

We still need have a third bookcase full of custom group fabrics, and then we’ll move on to the Babi Boxes (which include an assortment of vinyl, nylon, waterproof canvas… who knows what!)

I hope you enjoy the destash!

Time to destash 😭😭 It hurts to do, but it needs to happen. I’m hoping all the beauties I let go of find new loving homes ❤️.

This is just one cabinet! I’ll tackle the other two later this week. 

Boxes will be listed on the site Monday at whatever-time-Babi-decides 🤣 
Patreon - she’ll post in the Facebook group when they’re ready 💪
