Patchwork Palooza assembly in process<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I spent some time assembling Patchwork Palooza the other day. I haven’t finished yet, but I am making progress and I enjoyed the process. <\/p>\n

I wasn’t sure about the sashing, but think the blocks needed some space between them. Some blocks, where I used the background fabric as their background, are floating now, which I think looks nice.<\/p>\n

I put them up according to the layout of the project. I changed around a few of them and may change a few more, but we’ll see. With the limited palette I used, it is hard to keep similar colors away from each other. <\/p>\n

I also decided to finish out the Irish Chain effect. You can see what I am thinking in the lower left hand corner of the photo at the top. I took apart some of the extra alternate blocks<\/a> and made them into border blocks. <\/p>\n
