And it left a trail!! :mrgreen:
This is my new "Going Green" quilt that will be a queen size before it is over with I think. :roll: I will know more after I have put some more of these blocks together.
This will be one that I will sell when my GD and I do the bazaar in a few months. This quilt was made from some king size flat sheets I picked up at the thrift store for like $2.50 for the pair. I need to go grab some thread tomorrow because I am going to run out of the color I am using to piece it up with but I should have no more than $8 to $10 in this quilt after I finish it.
But here is one of the blocks and it was sewn on my 1948 Universal 15 that is in my studios treadle.

I love this quilt pattern. I got a block like this in fall colors in a swap and keep thinking I will do a scrappy one since I won't be able to get more or even enough of that same fabric. Can't wait to see pictures. Can't wait to get to mine one day. It's on the list.

I love the block also, it is going to be hard to let this one go but I will. The block measures 12.5 x 12.5 and I squared each time I added to make a bigger size. This is not the simplest block to do but the finished product will be fabulous!!

This was one of the first patterns I made and it lives on the back of the recliner, gets used all through the cooler months. I wish I had not run the pattern all of the way out to the edges, the design just twirls off the quilt. If I were to make another I would do the outer trails all in the same color to contain the design.
