Saturday, August 1, 2009 at 9:23AM
This morning I am introducing block 10 (placed on this grid) in the I dropped the Button Box quilt. I hope people will enjoy seeing it in more detail over the next week or so.
Fabric content:
It is actually quite a simple block as you can see there are only 6 pieces of fabric in it
Piece 1: Velvet
Piece 2: Polyester /cotton mix from a blouse.
Piece 3: Open weave linen
Piece 4: Polyester from a costuming fabric scrap
Piece 5: Polyester Satin
Piece 6: Corduroy
Item Count:
As I have explained before this quilt is a Y2K quilt which is made up of 2001 different elements. My definition of an element was either a different fabric, lace, braid, charm, buttons or ribbon. So far this is the count of items on the blocks so far.
Fabric: 6
Lace, braid and ribbon: 3
Buttons: 6
Charms: 3
Total items on this block: 18
Total tally on Quilt so far 193

Hi Sharon,
I am really in love with these crocheted medallions. They seem like the perfect size and shape for these blocks.
I'm working on a couple little assisi projects and will post links for photos as soon as I'm done. Lots of inspiration on that front here, with your leaves, crab and seahorse work.
Glad to see you back, by the way.
