I fell in love with this block when I saw it on the Joe Tulips' blog last week (the link is here) and decided to try to make a few of my own. I'd already cut a bunch of 2.5 inch strips for another project I was working on, so it was easy to get started. It's really fun to put different fabric combinations together, slice them up, and see how the pattern develops....I'm hooked. I think I'll keep going until I have enough for a queen-sized quilt for my guest bed. It's a great stash-buster and it doesn't get boring.
I think I like that better than the traditional way.
ReplyDeleteExactly! Me too. It's much more interesting to work on too.
ReplyDeleteLove your quilting blog, Ginny. I will try to check it from time to time. I have great admiration for quilting, and maybe someday will give it a real try.
