Thank you so much for the quilt love! These blocks trim at 6.5". I cut 7" foundation squares from inexpensive muslin. I used leftover bobbins, almost gone thread spools, and my scraps. This is really a total scrap buster project!

Here's neat tutorial if you're not familiar with this fun and easy block: http://loftcreations.blogspot.com/20...by-sleeps.html

Your own version will use the scraps you've worked with and love. It probably won't be as crazy as mine. Most of you know I'm a huge fan of color and design! But wouldn't one of these look spectacular in civil war repros, or Fall colors? Or pastels? I'd love to see what you come up with!

Thanks again!
