Esta semana meu marido tomou a 3a. dose da vacina contra Covid-19, após 6 meses da 2a. dose. Segundo estudos científicos a 3a. dose ajuda a aumentar a imunidade contra o vírus em pessoas acima dos 60 anos e pessoas imunossuprimidas.
Até ontem: 71,64% da população tomou a 1a. dose.
51,02% da população tomou a 2a. dose, ou a dose única
2,76% da população tomou a 3a. dose.
Infelizmente o Brasil contabiliza 605.211 mortos pela Covid-19.
1 ano e 7 meses depois do primeiro caso confirmado no país, continuamos nessa luta em meio a uma grave crise política e econômica.
Mas vamos falar de coisas mais leves. Que tal falarmos dos Blocos Easy Breezy que estou fazendo para o RSC-21?
Estou fazendo meus blocos com 8 polegadas (tamanho final) e para isso estou usando retalhos com 2,5 polegadas.
Este mês estou usando a cor marrom, para o Rainbow Scrap Challenge, já que não tinha retalhos suficientes, na cor escolhida por Angela para usarmos em Outubro: verde cítrico.
Fiz 5 blocos, 2 de transição com a cor laranja e outros 3 em tons de marrom:
Total de blocos feitos de Janeiro até Outubro/2021: 73
E usando o chão como mural, fui colocando os blocos um ao lado do outro e mudando algumas posições seguindo a ordem das cores usadas mês a mês:
em um lay-out de 8 X 8, com 64 blocos, dá para montar um quilt com 64" X 64" polegadas (1,62m X 1,62m aproximadamente), tamanho suficiente para a montagem de um quilt de sofá. Gostei da idéia!!
E ainda ficam sobrando outros 9 blocos: 8 poderão ser usados para fazer um caminho de mesa (table runner):
e sobrará 1 que poderá ir para a pilha de blocos órfãos ou ser usado no forro.

I like your easy breezy blocks, the arrangement looks lovely! I wish I hadn't used various background fabrics in my blocks. I didn't like how they turned out very well. Happy stitching!
I love your Easy Breezy layout, Ivani! The way you transitioned from one color to the next throughout the year was such a great idea. I think the 8 inch blocks were a great idea, too. This is going to make a pretty quilt!
the quilt looks good! I had the 3rd shot about 3 weeks ago and my husband will get his 3rd shot today. One of our daughters is getting hers today also. we are all feeling better protected.
Our countries have many of the same Covid issues. We have 728,000 dead. Such a tragedy. So glad that your husband got his third shot! We are looking for appointments for ours and will get them in the next couple of weeks. Your blocks look great and will make a wonderful, happy quilt.Hurray for making it this far!

Oh my gosh, Ivani, your Easy Breezy quilt is so pretty! And a win win to get a quilt, a table runner and and extra block for your “parts department “. Great job!
very nice I like the arrangement
I love your quilt but so much work with such tiny squares you must have lots of patience. Our Covid numbers are getting higher by the day I have just heard from 3 friends who have all tested positive in the past week two of which have had their third dose. It looks like we are going to have to live with this disease for a very long time to come. Have a lovely weekend. xx
