Old Year Sewing

Here are the 9" blocks for the January Block Lotto.  For those that are reading this I challenge you to make a block or two, whether in black and white prints or whatever fabrics you choose.  It's a great exercise in accurate piecing, and colour value.  The instructions can be found here (well, until the end of Jan 2015!).  Next time I'll show all the extras that I ended up with because I started with strips cut from the width of fabric and some fat quarters.  It was interesting to note that I had to reject quite a few of my black and white prints as the colour distributions were equal, that is neither black nor white were dominant.
