Catch A Wave

It’s Month 2 of the Modern Quilts Unlimited is having a new challenge – Everything Old is New Again Block and Quilt Challenge!  I managed to make a new block for this months theme – Snail’s Tail.

I have to admit – I had a hard time figuring out a way to make a block as defined as a ‘Snail’s Tail’ Modern.  But I’m really happy with how it turned out!  Once again –  I cut up my Asian Tea Time in Tokyo panel and pretended it was just regular fabric yardage.  I also mixed in some Cotton Couture Marine and Cotton Couture Plum into the tail portion.  

I used just a tiny ‘lip’ of Cotton Couture Acid to on three strips of the block.  The acid fabric is actually a lip or flange of fabric to create a slight amount of dimension on this block.

And here are my two ‘Everything Old is New Again’ blocks together!  I’m really enjoying where this challenge is taking me!   I do need your help – from today, September 11th until September 14th.  Public voting is open HERE.  I believe my block is on the third page … Please take a minute to vote for ‘Catch a Wave’.  I appreciate your support!
