Round 3 done at last!

I decided to go with black and white, was feeling like I already had plenty of color. I had a piece of unused black and white strata, cut on 45 degree angle and added after I added a mostly black border to break the color from last round. Hope next round calls for color now I think it has to much black and white ;-)

Eddie's Round Two

Here is my block so far, Round Two done.

First I went through my scrap basket looking for brights & made some small crumb blocks which I arranged around my round one block.


I thought it looked like a hot mess, then I remembered that Freddy Moran said that she used a lot of black and white fabric to give the eye some where to rest so I added the black and white border and then the crumb blocks as around the black and white border. I think I am ready for step 3.

Round one LibRR2



I decided to use this block for my first round and liberate it. I made this block at a workshop last summer which I attended with my daughter and a good friend. I was testing color options. I like the brights with the black background, but only had enough of the focus fabric for two blocks.



First I added some solid inserts



Decided it needed something else so added the black and white inserts. I have to admit that I have been looking at every one's posts as I originally had no idea how to go about "liberating" my block!

Looking forward to seeing what is next as this is my very first Liberated Round Robin.
