Description: | |
This month's goddess is a Goddess of the Harvest The finished block will be 9" that includes a 1/2" seam allowance. This will leave plenty of allowance for a creative canvas. The Goddess will be an applique design on the block. You can place the goddess wherever you like within the block, just not in the seam allowance! The applique should be between 5-7" tall. Goddesses of the Harvest include: Ceres, Demeter, Annapurna I think of wheat or a cornucopia filled with fruits and veggies when I think of harvest. What do you think of? Maybe your goddess is holding a basket of fruits and veggies, or maybe sheรขโฌโขs in a wheat field. Or maybe she's surrounded by pumpkins? :) You can use any fabric you like for this block and any fall/autumn colours (golds, browns, greens, reds, etc.). The background fabric can be any colour but must be 100% cotton. You can decorate the background however you like--just no dangly bits that could come off in the wash. Try to remember to sign the block or place your maker's mark on the block so it's visible when the block is pieced into a larger quilt Rules on joining You must have a good rating of 4.9 or higher. No 1s or 3s within the past 3 months. If you feel you've been incorrectly or unfairly rated and want to join, please contact me so we can discuss it first. You must have 10 mailed/package swaps completed. If you don't have enough but want to join, please post below and perhaps someone will be willing to do a private trade with you! I'll be doing multiple goddess swaps, so drop when you need to and join as often as you can!! |
