I finally finished my " Not your grandmother's tumbling blocks" quilt for my son. I started it a few years ago and am pleased that it is finally done. I sure love the "pop" of colors.

Tumbling Blocks isn't one of my faves, but yours is GORGEOUS! Love it!

I love tumbling blocks and yours are beautiful. Jenny from Missouri Star Quilt Co. has said she plans to come out with a tutorial on them soon. I hope it is easy enough for me to give it a whirl.

Very, very, nice.

Love the colors, the bright yellow and then the darker shades of other colors. I feel like I could pluck a block out of there.

Great Tumbling Block quilt and I think that pattern (not your grandma's tumbling block) is super!

Very pretty and I'm sure your G-Son loves it.

Gorgeous quilt! Glad you finished it!

This is not a traditional tumbling blocks. It is strip pieced. The creator is Baker (Marge, I think) I first saw it about 8 years ago on Simply quilts. So no Y connections but still a lot of angles to deal with cutting and joining just so.

it's wonderful

MamaBear61 02-21-2013 05:22 PM

It is great. You are right about the pop of colour.
