Ever get an idea that you really want to try,
but it challenges your brain..
a lot?
For my July block, I wanted to make something resembling
fireworks.
The way they shoot in the middle,
then radiate out.
After some playing around,
and lots of little blocks,
this is what I came up with.
I made my triangles by stitching around the squares,
and cutting diagonally in both
directions.
It is an easy way to make four identical ones.
I cut, pressed and trimmed all of the sections..
then arranged them for piecing.
Two Firework blocks for July!
One has been delivered to Oregon
before this posting.....
It's a great block. I love the tiny blue/green triangles contrasting with the white in the center.
