The 2022 Block Challenge with @rileyblakedesigns h

The 2022 Block Challenge with @rileyblakedesigns has started this month and I’m thrilled to be part of it!
🍁
While the final quilt layout is a mystery, pretty sure you’ll love the blocks being shared by a bunch of us RBD designers! I’ve seen a sneak peek and they are fantastic!
🍁
This is my contribution - Autumn Leaf. It’s a traditionally pieced block - not a single bit of FPP to be found 😉 I can do that on occasion 😆 it’s a fun little sew and works up quickly!
🍁
I made this version using the Kisses Basic for the leaf and my Rainbow Scatter print from the low volume collection Hush Hush (in stores now).
🍁
Pop over to @rileyblakedesigns to get all the details on the RBD Block Challenge and grab the details on the other blocks released so far!

A new project underway calls for a biiiig rainbow.

Check out this gorgeous collection of red and white fabrics! This is the appropriately named Red Hot and it’s a collaborative line by a bunch of different @rileyblakedesigns designers. Including me 😉 can you guess which print is mine?
♥️
I love that there’s a white on red, plus the inverse red on white for each print. It really makes such a robust and useful collection. Red Hot will be in stores any day now so make sure to ask your LQS or fave online store to nab some for you 😉

I’m a little worried I’m bordering on crazy chicken lady status. But seriously, when the chickens are this cute, it would be wrong not to share them with the world, right? (Don’t worry, we’ll resume rainbows and sewing shortly! Just enjoy the cute interlude).
🐓
We’re well into summer heat here in Australia. We had a really hot week a bit ago when ah snapped this pic. While I’m happy to soak up the ac inside, I haven’t crossed the crazy chicken lady line to have these gals join me (chicken nappies/diapers are just a step too far). So lots of googling on keeping our chickens cool - and this idea was the winner. Just enough water for a little paddle for them to cool off and they were much happier little chickies. In fact Obi Hen Kenobi didn’t want to get out. Anahen Skywalker and Chookbacca preferred a little more personal space perching on the edge.
🐓
They dried off pretty quickly in the heat and then headed to a breezy shady spot under the tree to discuss amongst themselves how very lucky they are to be adopted into our family 😆
🐓
This worked a treat but I’m always up for more ideas to keep our gals happy little birds in the summer. So fellow chicken lovers (and I know you’re out there), hit me with your best chicken cooling tips!
