September Color Challenge Revisited (Friday Foto Fun #51)
Happy Friday! I can't believe this is the last Friday of September! Which means the September Color Challenge link up is OPEN to enter your block for prizes! YAY!!! Make sure to head over to Patterns By Jen's blog to link up. If you missed the kickoff of the challenge, you still have time to make something RED-VIOLET and enter! Read about the September Challenge here.
This is my 3rd red-violet block, this one using Jen of Dizzy Quilter's Circle Play block! Like previous months, I used my quarter circle templates to make my paper piecing templates to make this wonderful block! Check out my January post that walks through the process for the circle. This month the idea was strip piecing and then cut to make the circular block.
I followed Dizzy Quilter's instructions, but I used my own templates and 2.5" strips. I made it so that my arcs intersected one of the seams of the strip pieces.
Don't forget to download my block free until the end of the month as well!

Nice block, and a great job on getting the seams lined up. Did you use a template for the outer block portion?
