Cotton Reels

Cotton Reels, a boring 8" block. This one is sort of a "cheater." It was exhumed from last year's attempt at B-a-D, so I'm reusing it instead of making another one. Making use of last year's blocks will happen several times during January and February, and then I'll be moving on into brand-new territory.

And now we're working in the purple color set -- so that's four different fabric groups this week. I don't have much selection in my purple stash tub, so the purple blocks are rather uninspired -- old, dated fabrics for the most part. But another donation quilt will eventually be created, and perhaps my purple tub will get replenished at some point along the way. There are only a few more purple blocks coming up any time soon, and they're all being recycled from last year, so I'll have a chance to figure out where I'm headed with this color group.

And this concludes Week 1!
