My friend Corinne designed this adorable Chickadee block pattern and it was too perfect not to make for Easter/Spring! I absolutely love her design style and the way she uses shapes!
This little guy comes in a 12" or 16" block pattern, so I went with (4) of the 16" blocks to make a Chickadee wall hanging. I chose 4 different bright colors that scream spring. Seriously awesome!!!
For the fabrics I used Riley Blake Confetti Cottons. They come in so many great colors!
It's been a while since I just used solids, so I loved being able to find just the right ones! I decided on Confetti Cottons Solids in Azure, Orchid, Riley Hot Pink, Riley Lime, Lemon Zest, Mac and Cheese, and White. Plus I went with this awesome 1/2" stripes for the binding.
Then I went with a simple organic wave to give it some good texture!
And I was able to actually trek out to the park to get some great outdoor pictures! I'm definitely going to have to do this more often.
I love the way these colors all play together with that 1/2" striped binding. Seriously adorbs!!! This pattern is two thumbs up!
I think these are my favorite pictures. There weren't many flowers since we had that big freeze but there was a lot of green stuff at least!
I'm excited to add this wall hanging to my spring decoration collection!

Until later, happy sewing!
