Settlers Trail

I saw this quilt in this thread.

http://www.quiltingboard.com/main-f1...n-t224964.html

So I stopped working on my lots of blocks project as I was dying to try this quilt. I had bunches of left over 2.5 squares for my the Cross and H quilts that I made recently.

I can't imagine the size squares used in that quilt, they must be 0.5 inch lol. Here are the blocks that make up the design and when sewed together are already 55x55.

I put it right over the current quilt I am working and must get back today as I have had my fix lol. It is a beautiful quilt and I had a fun time making it as it went so smoothly and was a nice break from the blocks on the board lol.

Since it is already 55x55. I will put a 3/4 inch border on it and then do some more smaller nine patch to go for the second border or maybe a piano key border, don't know yet

very nice, I love the scrappy look

I figured it out. The big nine patch measures 18x18. After I add the border I will make the second border out of the large nine patch and that will add 36 inches to the sides and top and bottom and that will be a nice size. This will have to wait, because I must get back to my current quilt. I just had to have a detour lol.

I always enjoy seeing what lovely ideas you come up with and I am always inspired.

I would love to spend a week in your sewing room. I am sure it would uncover all sorts of treasures.

Nice job. I saw the post the other day and thought, ANOTHER ONE ON THE BUCKET LIST. I like working with smaller pieces so it will take forever to get a full quilt.

This is already 55x55 and it only took two days and not complete days.
