June blocks were pretty straight forward, except for keeping those stripes aligned correctly!
The rail fence as one of the July blocks was perfect for using as a leader/ender for the other blocks. I used a wide variety of fabrics for those. I have decided I am not a fan of directional background fabric! I changed out the one used for block 19 (middle row) so I wouldn't waste fabric.
In addition to working on quilt blocks, I went to a Stitch n'Bitch for Ren Faire garb. Making doublets (and making your own pattern from a book, at least) and modifying some existing gowns and kirtles was the order of the day. I mostly just helped here and there. I also worked on making me a working woman's skirt, hopefully can show that next week!
