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!

More...

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.

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 🤣

All new colors of our most popular items have arri All new colors of our most popular items have arrived in @shopoklaroots ! We have the popular Large Spiked Craft Bowls restocked as well as the Rounded Fancy Straps. 

I’ve also received requests for clear Strapzeez in standard shapes like the rectangle and circle, for those times you need the functionality of the accessory and not the colorful bling 👍.

Have a great weekend!

This week we’re making the INCREDIBLE Taylor Beach Bag from @uhohcreations ! This is a beginner friendly quick make that can hold a LOT! I am especially loving this vinyl mesh that makes the bag breathable but still supported.

This would also be a great bag for the pool, sleepover, road trips, my secret fabric stash 🤫 You name it! 

All of the material for this bag comes from this months @bagmakingbeesclub BABE box, a great subscription for beginners and sew-jo boosting.
