I'm working on my newest quilt ... I won LOADS of blocks from blockcentral.com and wanted to start working with them right away... They were so pretty. The blocks I won come in sets. All are roses with solid or tone on tone fabrics. Each set has a block with the roses fussy cut in the center and a solid border and then the opposite block with the roses surrounding the solid center.

I'm using the blocks with the roses in the center and setting them with 4 patch blocks that are surrounded by white. This quilt is really a pleasant one to work on. I havent decided on the size or how I'll border it... kind of thinking about it as I go.

Your quilt is so pretty. What are the dimensions of your squares and strips surrounding them? Thanks

NorthernDeb 07-22-2009 01:08 PM
These are 8 inch blocks... the centers are cut as 4-1/2 squares (4 inch sewn) then the border fabrics are 2-1/2 inch strips. If you go to www.blockcentral.com and look in the block swaps, you'll find instructions and sizes for making the happy block... PLUS theres always a swap going on. We love to have more quilters joining us. Two winners a month!

Very nice, I really like the pattern you're doing this in.

quiltersew 07-23-2009 05:27 AM
What was the name for the quilt? I went to blockcentral and didn't find it. I thought the site was not user friendly or it could be user error....thanks

Quiltersew, I sent you a pm with the link.
