Turn Dash/Monkey Wrench
 
I'm so in love with the small Turn Dash / Monkey Wrench blocks that Bonnie Hunter is doing on her blog. Have you seen them? So perfect for all the small scraps in my stash. But she hasn't given the size out yet, but I'm guessing they end up at 6 1/2" before sewing together or adding a sashing. I'm already planning on adding a piano key border to my quilt. Personally, I'm on pins and needles until she releases the pattern for these little cuties. Anyone else with me on this?

Yes, I'm with you on that! I did her Leader Ender challenge called Easy Breezy and just loved the small (4 1/2") blocks so much I continued with the same challenge this year. It has used up lots of small bits and pieces. Since I sew almost everyday, even if only 15 minutes, you end up with lots of blocks in a years time. Even when making the Easy Breezy blocks in between sewing other blocks. I'm sold on leaders and enders!! I love seeing what new scrappy ideas Bonnie tempts me with.

I went to her site and watched their truck driving down their long snow/icey driveway. That driveway can be an Olympic bobsled run but watch out for the trees!!

Just looking, so cute - they seem to me to be 5.5" (HSTs 2.5" and sashing 1.5 x 2.5")

I also just love those churn dash/monkey wrench blocks and can’t wait to see her finished quilt. I followed her Easy Breezy leader-ender and did the 6” blocks. I just get so tempted by all of Bonnie’s scrappy creativeness.

I've been searching her site and can't find them!

I was looking for another pattern on Bonnie's site and she does have a free pattern for the churn dash blocks she is making. It wouldn't surprise me if she makes a different looking quilt with the ones she is working on now :)
