This month\u2019s installment of BAM-alot Blocks found me hunting up the longest pieces of solid fabric for creating borders. I didn\u2019t have any of the new fabric additions, so I thought I\u2019d use the original purples and gray prints. Perhaps I could echo the pie slices in the corners and use colorful squares-on-point along the edges. I also toyed with triangles.<\/p>\n
But for some reason, that hypnotizing circle fabric was too overwhelming. Maybe a good solid could contain its energizing powers. The purple seemed dull, but there were two possible reds, one burgundy and one hot pink. Guess which one I liked?<\/p>\n
Just an inch around gave my eye a place to rest. I had visions of polka-dot orange & purple Prairie Points, but I restrained myself and even ditched the orange. Good idea, though so I speed-pieced a few trios of triangles. If I put too many around, it would negate the \u2018calming effect\u2019 of a solid. Hey, pink is a neutral, right?<\/p>\n
Anyway, here it is! And I did make one special purple Prairie Point. \ud83d\ude42 (NOTE: MY addition to this block is just the outside hot pink border with colorful triangles & one special Prairie Point.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This month\u2019s installment of BAM-alot Blocks found me hunting up the longest pieces of solid fabric for creating borders.
