Country Cottages.....
again! Back when this BOM first started, I was feeling pretty ambitious. I thought I would reduce the size of each block to 6", so that my finished quilt would not be so large. Well....by March, reality set in, and I decided to go ahead with the designed dimensions. I had done January's and February's block as six inches. I kept up with all the other blocks at the regular size....which meant I had two blocks to redo. Finally, here are the January and February blocks in the 12 1/2" by 12 1/2" size.
January:
A few details for this block:
I wasn't too happy with the snowman's hat and redid it a little, as well as the face and a portion of the scarf. No giant snowflakes in the sky, either. I did those in the six inch size and did not think they added that much to the block.Here's February:
This one has become one of my favorites. A few of the details for this one:
I'd like to take a moment to thank everyone for stopping by to visit. I especially enjoy reading the various comments left by those taking a few minutes out of their day to do so. :))
