I was able to SQUEEZE in some fabric therapy today.
:)
I pulled out this cute print.
I'll probably use it for the backing.
I pulled out some coordinating fabric.
Mostly solids.
Not ALL.
Notice the orange shirt that I didn't use in the last quilt???
LOL!!
After cutting some 8" squares.....
I layered three or four in a stack
and made TWO diagonal cuts.
Mixed up the pieces and made some blocks.
Very simple.
The edges don't line up with this method...
so...
I had to trim them.
Then....
I got to PLAY!!!
Laying the blocks out
this way and that....
There ARE chores on Saturday....
but I always manage to
squeeze in some
PLAY TIME too!!!!
wow this is really pretty!

That's just way to super cute for being so simple. It's a great stashbusters idea. Thanks for sharing, Beth.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this easy technique, Beth! What fun to do, and the blocks look great. Very modern looking! This would be fun to do for a charity quilt.
ReplyDeleteVery pleasing, and that print backing is great.
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome way to mix up the fabrics---love this little 'tutorial'. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea!!!! It looks terrific too.
ReplyDeleteBeth, these blocks are so clever and effective!! They look wonderful!'
ReplyDeleteThey say it's a great way to stay young - play - I wish someone would have told me sooner. LOL

Great layout for this simple-to-make block. Every which way it looks good!
ReplyDeleteI love that, I can imagine it quilted up, it'll look terrific.
ReplyDeleteThis is going into my design book; likely never to be used, but it will always remain as inspiration. Thank you.
