Are any of you doing the Fatquartershop's Sewcialites sew-along? I have been enjoying making the blocks and watching the Friday Behind the Seams videos with Kimberly Jolly on YouTube.
Recently, Kimberly announced that her shop had created a binder to corral all the pattern instruction sheets for the project. Being an organization nut, I ordered the binder. Of course, any binder would do, but this one is labeled with the name of the project and is pretty cute.
I picked up some sheet protectors and got everything all assembled. It will be a nice reference for block patterns when the project is finished. Now I want to do this with all my past and current sew-along patterns!
These are my Sewcialites blocks so far. I didn't like one of the week's blocks and substituted the Martha Washington Star block (the purple one) for it.
There are bound to be more blocks I don't care for, so I made another extra one in the Ohio Star pattern. Keep this in mind when you are participating in these sew-alongs. You do you. Don't worry about following along exactly with the crowd. If you don't care for something, swap it out, make it your own.

Blocks looking great and am so like you….organized and like everything looking cute and in place! Like that we can just do different blocks if we don’t like a certain one…makes me think I will like what I finish better. Loving your blocks…😊

The binder is definitely cute & a great way to keep the pattern pages together! I agree that a pattern is a suggestion–you can make it your own or leave it the same, as you choose! Stay well!

I’ve printed off the patterns, but I haven’t made any blocks yet. I spent this summer putting all my patterns in protective pages in binders. One binder is for projects I want to do right away, and others I organized by size and purpose. I love all your current projects. I wish I had the time to sew.

Love your blocks and color choices! I am always scared to use check/gingham fabric. If I don’t cut it straight or if it isn’t printed straight to the grain, it will drive me crazy in a block. After seeing yours, I may just have to go for it!
