That sure is beautiful and just my pattern style, much like the Carpenter's Wheel. I'm bringing my stash and will be down around the 9th as planned now. I need lessons on this dark and light thing. lol

And , please bring all the batiks LOL |
I really love this block. Too bad I just gave away BARRELS (it seems) of scraps and already-cut squares of all sizes to the Linus project. I am a scrap quilt lover from the beginning of my quilting career.
In your description of how you made it, you say "Each of these blocks have 102 pieces in them." But I counted up the pcs your block and came up with 116 pcs. 36 dark/light HSTs, 16 dark/dark HST, and 12 light squares. This counted up to 116 pcs. Where am I going wrong? |

Thanks for the inspiration. Your quilt is really lovely.

Don't throw those wonderful dogears away! Years ago I saw a Nancy Ziemann program that used little bits and pieces like that to do really gorgeous projects - using a transparent or almost transparent over the top (quilted randomly, of course) to hold the pieces in place. I always wanted to try that, but never had enough scraps. Somehow, all my tiny scraps got thrown away.

I love it! I have tons of 1800's reproduction fabric. Mostly fat quarters. This is the quilt for me. Please show us pictures when you get finished.
