Happy Half Square Project BLOCK TWO

BLOCK TWO

For Block One - I used two colors only, so I decided to go a little scrappier this time and just use what ever Blues with Cream that I pulled out.

Hindsight - I probably should have chosen better - the secondary pattern gets lost in the scrappy.
and maybe - if I had used three colors - I could have seen an inner pattern emerge?

BUT!! I Still like it!!




Again - I used 5 inch squares on my block
I used 8 Five Inch Cream squares  and 8 Five inch Blue squares to make my 16 Half Squares.



and Ta - Da  - Block TWO is finished!!

Enjoy!!!

Yes the colors blend a bit but it's still nice.

I like this one, too -- but I think I would go a bit less scrappy for mine so the pinwheel in the center is stronger. Adding this to my HST collection.

I still like the calm of these colors...

Personally, I love scrappy. I do see how maybe the secondary pattern got a bit lost. But the blues and creams are just so lovely together! Thanks for sharing your journey on Wednesday Wait Loss.
