New Quilting Bee 2017

Great block. You can do the blocks anyway you like, scrappy or all in a theme. The reason I went with a 10" block this time as so many blocks we've done in past have been 12 1/2", just wanted something different. These are your blocks so make out of anything you want..

Thanks for the kind words. Yes, I will make my blocks with red and gray fabrics and hope to mix them with some 9 inch blocks done in red and gray that were part of a block of the month a LQS did a few years ago. I know they are stored in a blue backpack, I just have to find it. I thought I would frame the 9 inch ones with black and it would look kind of like sashing if I alternate them with these.

That will be a striking quilt, Bib...I love reds and grays/blacks together. Pippa, glad you've joined in..Is there a way you could steam your block a bit and stretch it to 10 1/2"? I've had to do that and just a wee bit of work and it'll measure correctly. This is YOUR block, so do what you need to do to make it work. Welcome.
