Uncorked, Day Three

July 1 already! New month, new block, new calendar! The one for today is an 8" Triangles and Bars. (Scroll to the bottom to see another quilt made using Uncorked.)

Triangles and Bars: 8"

Yes, I'm still working with these gorgeous blenders. They are STILL available and are from Windham Fabrics. They're called Uncorked. If you look closely, you'll see why!

I've made several quilts already using them, and I needed a red, blue, gold and cream today. I found them for this simple block!

I made two blocks with the blue and red in different patches. Same center triangles. I just counted how many of the 366 blocks in my calendar are 8" - there are 34!

I like to see how 4 blocks look together. Sometimes you have to rotate and recolor them. Here is a simple way with 4 Triangles and Bars blocks:

And for a quilt I've made with Uncorked, here is a simple quilt center I call Stacked Hearts. Not sure where it is in my studio, but I'm looking . . .

Here's the center Stacked Hearts appliqué and the 3 companion fabrics from Uncorked that I used.
