When I cut the fat eighths of hand dyed fabric with my Studio cutter I get 12 triangles and I only need 9 per block. That is my little pile of leftover 3's and a block made from 6 of the 3's. It is fun to go back through and see how many similar ones I can find to come up with 9 of each color that I'm using.
Sometimes I have more fun figuring out what to do with the leftovers than I do making the original quilt. Love the look your are getting with your hand dyed fabrics. Very pretty The print zigzags are pretty too.

Love the hand dyes, love the block!
ReplyDeleteLeftovers can be so much fun later on. Have fun with them. Chris

ReplyDeleteI love that! You know that batiks and hand dyes are my absolute favorite fabrics.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great use for the leftover pieces!
ReplyDeletevery nice, what an easy idea, just reversing your squares. I like it.
ReplyDeleteThere's something about this that is so special. It almost looks like shimmering water. So very beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI'm loving your 'zig zag' in batiks! MIne is just a hodgepodge of scraps but pretty addictive!
ReplyDeleteThese are my kind of fabrics!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's fun looking at those zig zag blocks -- the fabrics definitely work together!
ReplyDeleteOh my. Such lovely fabrics!
ReplyDeletePicking up the leftover pieces and making the block is so much fun! It hardly looks like they came from different fabrics. Nice block.
