*** Out West! Block Inspiration ***
Our Out West! Theme this month is a look at history.
One year we loosely followed the Lewis and Clark trail while traveling from our home in Virginia to Portland Oregon for the trade show. It was also the 200th anniversary of the expedition so many places along the trail had markers and information. It was a lot of fun! We spent a lot of time thinking about what it was like to do that trip 200 yrs before us.
Another important western movement that brought a lot of people out to homestead in the west was the Gold Rush.
Tell me if you love Western history, or better yet, have a story about how your family moved out west!
Quote of the Month is one of my all time favorites:
"If a girl wants to be a legend, she should go ahead and just be one." - Calamity Jane

*** Tutorial ***
This floral was perfect to fussy cut.
I kept the bottom half with more color, the made sure the top of each rectangle was more airy. I shifted the ruler around until I saw what I like.
Next time you see fabric like this, buy it for fussy cutting!
