November's Block and Colours
The 80s were so bold and geometric. Tubular!
Here are my blocks with a touch of Jem and The Holograms vibe to them★.
Remember these rules?
- You can add other colours to the blocks, as long as the colour prompts are used as well.
- Use as much or as little of the colour prompts as you like.
- Use the best match from your stash, no pressure to use the exact Kona fabric or colours.
Although it would be tricky, there should be ways to use text this month using the HSTs in different sizes. (There is one more month where the block *might* lend to building text but it could be challenging, so take advantage of September - November if you can 😉).
If you're up for trying text, November's theme is "80's". If we had thought of it when the colours where shared, "barf me out" would have been a well used phrase🤣. #thisistheworstoneyet #thesecoloursaregnarly
VectorStock to the rescue again! I googled "triangular fonts" if you want to try a search yourself and see what comes up 👀.
