I pressed the blocks I made a couple days ago and trimmed them. These two were started with little 4 patches in the center.
This one has 3 strips sewn together for the center. I always have a little pile of small pieces from trimming the length of strips that are added.
Here is a group of strips to use for another center.
Here they are sewn together along with another started block with a 4 patch center.
I took the finished blocks to the design wall and also added some possible border blocks that I made earlier this year. I either need 1 more block or 15 more crazy pieced blocks depending on how big I want to make this. The blocks will finish at 8".
This makes me want to buy more red fabrics so I can chop them up for bits to make this quilt! But then I'd probably want one in purples, and yellows/oranges, maybe even one in more subtle earthy tones.... Or maybe I should just save myself from an expensive FART (fabric acquisition road trip)and just hope for this one to show up in your store? : )
love this design and all reds is wonderful
