Flea Market Flowers BLOCK "M" Welcome to Week One of the Flea Market Flowers Sew Along! We are using my latest fabric collection called Flea Market It's designed by me ... and produced and distributed by the amazing Riley Blake Designs:) We are making my quilt FLEA MARKET FLOWERS 76" x 86" We are using my PIE RULER to make all of the flower petals... This set of my CIRCLE RULERS for all of the flower centers... And we are also using my SEED RULERS for all of the leaves in the quilt. All of the other notions as well as fabric requirements are detailed within the Flea Market Flowers Sew Along Guide CLICK HERE for the free PDF Download I also have a "Bee Prepared" blog post detailing everything that you will need to know about this sew along... CLICK HERE to go to that blog post if you have not read it or you need to be "refreshed" on any of the information! As promised... I did a video tutorial on my YouTube channel showing how to make Flea Market Flower BLOCK "M" CLICK HERE to go to that tutorial... so that you can make this cute flower!! I detail everything step by step in my video along with cutting instructions. Also... remember that all of the cutting for each print in this block is in your sew along guide as well:) I hoped you liked my video! It was really fun to do it for you:) I just love how this flower turned out... I think the patchwork center is really fun and many of these blocks would be a beautiful quilt as well! I have not appliquéd my block or trimmed it up yet but I'm pretty sure that I am going to machine applique all of the blocks for this quilt. Most of the time I hand applique but every once in a while I like to do it by machine and I think these blocks would be perfect for that. A few months ago I did a video tutorial on how I machine applique and hand applique CLICK HERE if you would like to watch me! I'll be using thread to match my appliqués which is what I always do whether by machine or by hand. After applique the block is trimmed down to 18 1/2" x 20 1/2" It will finish at 18" x 20" after it is sewn into your quilt. We will chat about trimming blocks down in the next week or two:) Flea Market Flowers BLOCK "L" is anothe one that I am doing a tutorial for this week as well. Please remember that I have asked you NOT to cut any of the flowers ahead of time (so that no mistakes are made and also there are a few speciality cuts) I will be showing you how to cut the flowers for each block as I do each tutorial. For BLOCK "L" you will need to make two - 6 1/2" Flowers so that means you will need to cut 32 petals. You will need a little bit more than two 3" x 21" strips to get all 32 petals cut. Lay your ruler on the fabric strips between the 4 1/2" and 7 1/2" lines that are marked as dashes on the Pie Ruler. I cut them exactly the same way that I showed you in the video for BLOCK "M" ... just different size strip height and different placement of the Pie Ruler. I have all of my other fabrics cut for the block and my Sew-In Interfacing traced. 1 - 2" Circle 2 - 4" Circles 4 - Small Leaves I cut my 1/4" prepared straight bias strip 6 1/2" long I cut my background 10" x 20" This is what a cute little 6 1/2" flower looks like:) By the way... 6 1/2" is the smallest sized flower that we will be making for the quilt. No matter what size flower we are making... they are all sewn the exact same way that I showed you in the video. Here is a close up view of the back of a 6 1/2" Flea Market Flower. A close up view of sewing my leaves! Okay...all shapes are: 1. Sewn 2. Trimmed 3. Turned 4. Shaped 5. Pressed Although in this photo I had only sewn one of my flowers:) I pressed my background in half BOTH ways so that I had a crease in the fabric to center my design on. I layed out the flowers and pinned onto my background using the design board underneath. I did this the exact same way that I show in my video:) After pinning I used the Sue Glue and removed the pins after the glue dried. From tip to tip of the two flowers it measures 17" long and the width of leaves and flowers are 6 1/2" wide. Flea Market Flowers BLOCK "L" is all ready for applique! It will finish at 8" x 18" when sewn into the quilt. After I have done my applique I will trim it down to 8 1/2" x 18 1/2" I really love the light colored centers in these flowers... so sweet!! Okay! So that is it for the tutorials today... two blocks down and fourteen more to go. This is going to be fun!! Have fun planting your flowers... I'll meet you right back here next week for Flea Market Flower Blocks "N" and "O" Chat with you later!! xx Lori

Riley Blake had a fantastic wall of minis at Quilt Markter to highlight their new Hashtag collection. The following quilts show off the Confetti Cottons wonderfully. Color Play Berry Sweet Lori Holt of Bee in My Bonnet has brought forth her characteristic cuteness and designed Sewing Scissors. Moda had some fun collections. You may remember Thicket by Stacie Bloomfield of Gingiber (which is having an amazing Black Friday sale). Get ready for some holiday spirit with her Merrily collection. Sugar Pie by Lella Boutique is too sweet! Spring Bunny Fun by Stacy Iest Hsu is completely adorable, and even has a panel to make bunny dolls. Brigitte Heitland unveiled True Blue, a denim-shaded modern collection. Sweetwater's latest is Treehouse Club. Jen Kingwell had a booth chock-full of scrappy beauties. Her Long Time Gone sampler was particularly eye-catching. Up for grabs today is a heap load of mini charms from Moda's yet-to-be-released collections and a pair of cute snippers. I'll pick a winner Nov. 30. I have a few stipulations for this one: 1. Follow the Quilting Mod blog (Bloglovin', Feedly, E-mail, etc.). 2. Tell me how you follow in a comment below. 3. Have a U.S. mailing address. Sorry, but shipping can be scary for lumpy things going overseas. Update: Donna is the winner! Thanks for stopping by! Have a great Thanksgiving.

I sewed my circles and leaves first. Now it's time for the petals:) Petals are all sewn and pressed... And flower is complete. It's a big one!!! I used one large and two small design boards to lay out the background for this block. I pressed my background in half so that I could center the flower easily. I made my flower 23" tall from the bottom of the stem to the top of the flower tips. I pinned all of the circles... And finally the leaves! I made sure that my leaves were not wider than my flower. After pinning everything into place I used the Sue Glue and let it dry before removing the pins. I truly love this big beautiful flower!!

Discussion: Line What is a line? how important do you think it is for art? let’s name a few lines: Diagonal, Curved, spiral, think, thick, wavy,etc... want to see drawn lines on paper begin to move? show Bridget Riley’s work, then begin to rotate it. Op Art: Op art works are abstract, with many of the better known pieces made in only black and white. When the viewer looks at them, the impression is given of movement, hidden images, flashing and vibration, patterns, or alternatively, of swelling or warping. Op is short for optical illusion. Thinking we see something that we don’t. Artist: Bridget Riley (1931- ) Famous as an early proponent of Op Art, Bridget Riley was born in South London. Riley’s artistic education: Goldsmiths college of art from 1949, then at the Royal College from 1952-5. Riley exhibited her artwork in a number of group shows at this early stage 1958. A mental breakdown led Riley away from her studio in the late 1950s. Upon her recovery she took up a string of teaching posts. It was during this period that Riley honed her personal artistic style. Played with pointillism Riley discovered her own method of treating optics in paint. The first painting rendered in this ground-breaking mode was ‘Kiss’ of 1961. The canvas is a sea of black, divided by an emerging white band which marks the space between two approaching bodies. The painting was immediately followed by Riley’s first solo show the following year, which took place at Gallery One in London, which showed her early monochromatic paintings. Riley also exhibited in the 1965 New York show which first propelled the concept of ‘Op’ art into the media spotlight. It was not until 1967 that she splashed into color and the optical possibilities The following year, 1968, saw Riley being awarded the International Prize for Painting. She was the first British contemporary painter, and first woman, to receive the prestigious prize. Commercial demand for Bridget Riley’s artwork peaked in the 1970s, but crumbled the following decade. The 1980s was a rather dark time for the artist as suddenly-and unexpectedly-her work fell out of fashion. But she never stopped working and recent years have witnessed a revival in her popularity,Musee d’Art Moderne de la Ville, Paris, hosted their own Riley retrospective in 2008. A freshly-discovered interest in Riley’s artwork has also been echoed in art market sales. In 2008 Sotherby’s London sold Riley’s ‘Chant 2’ of 1967 for over £2.5m. PROJECT: Create an Op Art Piece using Black lines Step1: using a pencil lightly draw a heart in the center of your paper Step2: using black sharpie, draw horizontal straight lines to the heart Step3: When you get to the heart zig zag your lines Step4: On the other side of your heart go back to straight lines. Step5: Continue with the steps until it is complete. MATERIALS: White paper Black Pens or sharpies

Lesson Objective Work with elements of art: Form, Shape, Color Work with principles of Art: Balance Create a additive wooden sculpture in the style of Barbara Spring Key Vocabulary: Additive: Is the process by which material is shaped and built up to create the desired image. Achromatic: Any color that lacks strong chromatic content is said to be unsaturated, achromatic, or near neutral. Pure achromatic colors include black, white and all grays; near neutrals include browns, tans, pastels and darker colors. Near neutrals can be of any hue or lightness. Color Scheme: color scheme is the choice of colors used in design for a range of media. Assemblage: An assemblage is a sculpture constructed from found objects. Typically an assemblage does not disguise the original objects used, rather it either tries to show them in a new light, or forms a figurative sculpture from the collection of shapes. Materials: Variety of wooden sticks Craft Sticks Tooth Picks Coffee Stirrers Wood chips Brown craft crinkle Glue: white or wood Focus Artist: Barbara Spring Video for projection presentation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJcmv-3aUys Project Requirements: Create a wooden cake in the style of Barbara spring using additive sculpture and assemblage.

They look at the artwork of Barbara Spring and use additive and assemblage techniques to create cake form with neutral/achromatic color format Discussion: ART HISTORY: Barbara Spring Barbara Spring (1916- 2011) 94 years old An exceptional wood sculptor, Barbara Spring's career began in 1935 in her native England She studied at the Gravesend School of Art in Kent and the Central School of Art in London. Her exhibits in this country span from 1962 to present. Actively worked at the studio she built in 1972 next to her home in Big Sur. "Barbara is Magic.” "She can give an ordinary face so much emotion." says Greg Hawthorne of the Hawthorne Gallery, where much of her work is exhibited. She pokes fun at the human frailties of her characters, their pettiness, self-importance and self-doubt Spring's gentle sense of humor makes them sympathetically engaging. Her keen observation of human nature and genius for creating the subtlest nuances are further enhanced by punning titles like "Major Faupar" and "Upton O'Goode".
