Pam Buda's sew along in PURPLES

I started to sew along with Pam Buda and the 
MARCUS FABRICS FRIENDS & COMPANIONS DESIGNER SEW-ALONG.
Each week, for 9 weeks, a different designer put up the directions to make a 8.5" block.
I didn't use their fabrics or the final design of quilt but I have made their blocks.
I have used a green and purple range of fabrics.
Here they are.........
Week 1


Week 2


Week 3


Week 4


Week 5


Week 6


Week 7



Week 8


Week 9

So my 9 blocks are done.
I am placing them with 13 blocks that were done by the members of another group I was in years ago. So this just maybe helping my finish a UFO out of my cupboard.
These blocks above only measure 8.5" so need to be built up to match my other blocks which have to be cut back to 11". I will add a dark purple border around the smaller block to build up,to the larger ones. I still have to do another 3 smaller blocks to make up my design..

This is my layout so far.

Marcus a Fabrics Sew Along

Today I had a great time at a Sit n Sew day at Kilmore.
Here is what I worked on...

I have been following Pam from Heartspun quilts and her sew along over at 

Every Friday a new pattern was put up. I have done completely different colours and am happy so far. I had these purples already and wanted to use them up.
I have only done the first two blocks so far. They are easy to do so it won't take too long to catch up now my fabrics have been chosen.

Week 1.... Pam Buda's block.
Union Forever


Week 2..... 
Paula Barnes' block
