Ombre Gems Quilt Along – Week 7

Welcome to Week 7!

This week we are back to 6 blocks!   Do you see I gave you a little break the last two weeks…? 😉

We will actually finish up our blocks in the next 3 weeks and assemble our quilt tops on the last week.  I don’t know about you but I’m getting excited for this colorful quilt to be done!

I had my blocks up on the wall this weekend to see how they are coming together.   I’ve decided to make a few changes by taking out some of the darker blocks.  I want to keep it light and bright.

Before (darker)

After (lighter)

I’m liking it better already even though that means making a few extra blocks!  I’m using a fat quarter bundle and should be able to get what I need from it.   Otherwise I’ll be digging into my ombre stash 😉


Week 7 / 10

This week we will:

  • Make 6 blocks

These can be either all full size blocks some full blocks and some full blocks and some half blocks.
