The August block (block 3) from Fat Quarter Shop for the 2025 Designer Mystery quilt has been pieced.
Last month someone asked if there was enough fabric in the packets if you made a mistake in cutting. I supposed it depends on how big of a mistake you make but I would say there is enough to correct mistakes.
The floral white background fabric has been in all three of the blocks so far. I had enough leftover from the first two blocks that I didn't even need to cut into the fat quarter that came with this block.
These floral fabrics have not been used so far, in fact none of the floral fabrics have been repeated so I'm accumulating a nice assortment of fabrics for a future project.
I'm ready to start Section 3 of the Stonefields quilt. There are only two blocks in this section that are pieced. Blocks 33 & 34 are named Bordered Four Patch, all the other blocks in this section are completely appliqued.

What a neat pattern - that white background is so pretty.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a pretty block Gretchen; the fabrics are so soft and appealing.
ReplyDeleteDarling blocks, Gretchen. I am drawn to the colors in the August block- sweet as can be. You are moving right along on the Stone fields. Have a terrific day Hugs.
ReplyDeleteThe fabrics in the Designer Mystery are so pretty! Thanks for sharing on my weekly show and tell, Wednesday Wait Loss.

The block for the Designer Mystery quilt is lovely. I've never subscribed to a mystery quilt before, but this one makes it tempting.
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting block for the mystery project! Isn't it fun to piece away when you don't know what the end goal is?
ReplyDeleteThis August block is a real stunner! I love how you show your blocks up close like this to even see the loveliness of the white fabric.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great block design #3 is. Love it! I am enjoying following your journey as you assemble the mystery quilt.
ReplyDeleteThat block is so neat but I have to tell you I'm obsessed with the Stonefield quilt you are doing!!! I've been enjoying your progress on that. I couldn't do it but sure love watching you!
ReplyDeletePretty blocks, both projects are beautiful. It's great to have a lot of various floral scraps! Patches in block #33 look like the background of the Designer Mystery block, lovely outlined white flowers. Thank you for sharing your new blocks and linking up.
ReplyDeleteI can’t believe you’re ready for Month 3 blocks already and you started after me! You have driven me to Desperate Measures, Gretchen — which is exactly what I’d hoped you would do! ;-). Thank goodness you are working on other projects at the same time or you’d finish hand quilting your Stonefields before I got halfway done with making blocks!
ReplyDeleteI love these fabrics Gretchen. Thank you for sharing on To Do Tuesday. 😁 Carol
ReplyDeleteHi Gretchen, that should make a lovely quilt - so far so pretty! Thanks for linking up to FM Mavericks!
