I've started assembling the next row of Quilty 365, working right to left across the top.
I ran out of steam getting the last blocks actually stitched, but at least the fabrics are chosen and cut and everything's ready to go. You'll notice there's bacon for the 28th fabric, and the March 1st orange peel is in the new RSC colors of purple with yellow.
The interesting thing is that the March 1st block is going to be right next to the February 1st block. Twenty-nine days made a complete lap around. Whoda thunk?
And in the kaleidoscope realm, how could I resist a bacon block?
It was the last block of February for my calmer gentler kaleidoscope project.
I need to catch up the corners on these blocks. I just didn't have the brain power to tackle it today.
My other kaleidoscope - the one that grabs me by the scruff of the neck and drags me back and forth through my stash - is now at this stage.
Now, this one, I'm not doing corners until the end. I've seen all kinds of creative treatments for those empty spots, so I'm leaving my options open until all blocks are made.
Say goodnight, kaleidoscope. I'm about ready to go lie down, myself.
But first, I'm linking to Quilty Folk for the Quilty 365 March linkup, and with Sane, Crazy, Crumby Quilting for Kaleidoscopes of Butterflies.

Love your 2nd Kaleidoscope version, colourful combos!
What fun. I'm so glad I'm not the only one making second (and third) kaleidoscopes. Love the bacon fabric. I hope you get better soon.
I can see that the kaleidoscope quilts are super addictive! Wonderful to see your orange peel blocks coming along too.:) I know it's not nearly as interesting! lol
With yellow as the RSC accent, I expect to see some bananas in your kaleidoscope blocks this month!
Hope you get to feeling better soon! Your kaleidoscope blocks look great.
That is such a miserable feeling. Your orange peels are so pretty. Love that bacon block!
Your kaleidoscope blocks are very effective but I do like orange peels, another on my wish list.

Both of your projects are looking great. I'm thinking the kaleidoscope blocks could become very addictive. Hope you feel better soon.
I like your orange peels very much and I´m going to try those too.
Hi Gayle! I love your orange peels! x Teje
All three projects look great. I hope you feel better soon.
Feel better soon!
Seeing your new start kaleidoscope has reminded me of the link-up!!! They are very addictive aren't they and I like your new one, hope you feel better soon.
Get well soon! I didn't know you had TWO kaleidoscope quilts going. Good for you. I've seen some quilts with corners left until the end but w/o a design wall I'm not sure I would be able to remember where everything goes. There are so many ways to make kaleidoscope quilts so how many do you think you will try?
hope you're feeling better soon!
Shall I drive to New York to slap the snot out of you? Ugh! What a horrible expression that is. Anyway, I hope you get well soon! Great blocks, too! The bacon fabric is the bomb!
