scraps, from the never emptying box!

You drafted it?
A friend gave me a screen shot of this top, don't know where it came from, but I drafted the pattern into 6-1/2 inch blocks. All the blocks are the same, you rotate when laying them out, four per large block. I like the way it turned out but was a bear to press! Couldn't figure out how to get the seams to nest when I was making the block so many (too many) fat seams. I made 48 of the blocks to assemble 12 blocks that measured 12-1/2". This is another charity quilt.

I really like your pattern. Sometimes, I too, can look at a quilt and figure out the pattern but I struggle on how to press the seems too! But I have also done patterns from quilt mags and they don't always tell how to press the seems either. I hate that! It makes a difference for sure.
You always come up with new and fun ways to use up the scraps! Thank you for sharing and I know one of these days I am going to come out to east Mesa and meet you! Just crazy right now. But DH and I were out at Greenway looking and houses. . .
