    DDuMouchel,

    This is a lovely block, and the full quilt will be spectacular. Are you sewing the squares together postage-stamp-style as opposed to sewing strips together and then cutting them?

    No, Sushi, I am sewing strips together and sub-cutting. It gives me much better accuracy than wrangling individual 1.5 inch squares.

    Default Just finished a scrappy blue Dutchman's Puzzle

    Just finished a "controlled" scrappy Dutchman's Puzzle lap quilt. It contains 49 fabrics, mostly scraps and stash, but added a few FQ's to add more colors. I tend to like scrappy in a limited color palette, haven't been brave enough to go for it and throw everything in just yet.

    You call yourself "Faintly Artistic"? I beg to differ! Very Artistic is more accurate.

    Love this quilt!

    Faintly Artistic, you have a winner. I will have to try this pattern in hopes mine turns out as well as yours.

    Faintly Artistic is my Etsy shop name...my daughter came up with it. Our last name is Faint and the shop has a little bit from all of us.
