Here's my next block for week two of the Pinwheel Party Quilt Along. The original directions say to use 6 different colored fabrics plus the background color. I chose to use 3 different polka-dotted fabrics (yellow, teal, and grey) plus the black background. I also purchased a novelty fabric with dogs on it, thinking that I'd fussy-cut some of the squares to showcase the little dogs. For this week's block I thought I'd add in some of those little dogs, but I'm not completely sold on it yet. I'm not sure if I'm really loving the dogs or not. I have no real plans for this quilt, so if it's a little juvenile with the dog fabric, that's fine- it's not like I've planned it to go in our bedroom or something.
And here it is next to last week's block- this will be the beginning of the first row of this quilt:
It's that little dog bum on the bottom left of my block that's bugging me. I think I might rip that piece out. But what to replace it with? A grey square to match the one in the first block? A solid yellow like the opposite corner? Or the polka-dotted yellow?
Mull it over and get back to me y'all!
Here's the block (I did a better job matching up the pinwheel but that top row is a bit off):
