Fire Flower Block

I was supposed to have been working on the Goomba block for the Super Mario QAL but I did not have a satisfactory assortment of browns. Not wanting to get behind I decided to do a different block instead and have finished my Fire Flower block.
I used Kona Tomato for the red and either Butter or Canary for the yellow.

Sunday Stash Seemingly Random Picks

This week's additions may seem a bit random, but most of them have a specific designation in my mind.
Like this little bundle. I have an idea in mind for 2 quilt made with some paper pieced blocks and these will become part of that project when I finally tackle it.
Prints are Sailing Blue and Fly High Blue from Studio E and the other is ABCs of Fleas by Alexander Henry.

Next is this bundle of Kona solids in Jade, Ice Frappe, Ivory, Ash and Black. It's going to be the top for my Groovy quilt in the Totally Groovy QAL

Then there's this Ed Emberly Panel for my future prints with animals (not animal prints!) quilt project.

Now things get a bit random. From The Intrepid Thread I chose some of the prints from the new Good Life line by Riley Blake. Some dots and flowers that will go with so many other fabrics.

Michael Miller's Thar She Blows and some Backyard Baby Trees that I have long admired. The whales are for a planned sailboat themed quilt, the trees are undecided.

And, Joann's is having a .99 fat quarter sale this weekend so I found a few there. A few more dots and 2 quilt shop quality prints.

While at Joann's I noticed they had about 6 or 7 of the new Denyse Schmidt Richmond prints. I have to say this line isn't a must have for me, it's quite dark. I did pick up half a yard of one print, plus 2 Alexander Henry Market prints.

And of course I can't leave Joann's without raiding the remnant bin, especially as all remnants were 70% off this weekend! I found a few Kona solids and a couple of other solids.
