more Lucy Love - Lucy Boston, Patchwork of the Crosses that is

I'm stitching together another row of my
Patchwork of the Crosses - Lucy Boston blocks, and
I found a couple more blocks that I don't think I've shared before.
(I guess I've just been too excited about getting them stitched together to take the time to photograph and share!)

Both of the blocks I am sharing today I made with only one fabric each:

And, the fabrics from which they were cut:

Divers 1863, Margo Krager - Newcastle Fabrics

Scarlet Evening, Judie Rothermel  - Marcus Fabrics

(FYI:  I took these photos in the same location with the same lighting and camera/settings,
but you can see the coloration difference in the wooden floor from my camera adjusting for the color saturation.)

When I saw the beautiful Scarlet Evening fabric,
I fell in Lucy-love with it -

(that's a specific fabric love to use in a Lucy block :)...

because I could just see all of those
stripes and swirls and leaves meeting up in a block!

BUT, (notice the BIG but) nothing -

and I mean N-o-t-h-i-n-g in this fabric

is lined up to fussy-cut or mirror!! 

SO... after MUCH finagling and a Swiss-cheese half yard of fabric,
I finally did get one block.  It's not perfect, but passable.

More Lucy-love to come shortly -
I almost have another row completed!

Hope your weekend is wonderful
and happy stitching,
Debra
