Block 102 - Whirlpool
Not a bad week for Farmer's Wife Blocks! I am still working ahead in the evenings after work. This one was entirely half-square triangles. The hardest part was picking the fabrics and the color combinations. It's very similar to one (or two?) i did earlier int he project--but the color arrangement was different.
Again the hardest part of this one was picking what color to make the teeth, or the points of the star. I was thinking about a golden yellow (probably my least favorite color anywhere), but decided against that. Instead I went with blue, green and purple to reflect the focus fabric. My usual palette. That worked out very well!
This is another one of those blocky awkward blocks. My nickname for it is: Chunky Monkey.
Block 103 - Whirlwind
To me this one looks more like one of those throwing stars. Dangerous. Or a circular saw. I guess they both have a kind of whirlwind action. The directional fabric for the tines gives it a little more motion.
