I was bored over Christmas holidays and was going thru web sites looking at 12" patterns. I decided to go thru my scrap fabrics and start making blocks. So far I have about 14 made and have patterns cut out for about 30 more. Have NO idea what Ill do with the blocks when Im done but it sure cured the boredom! My new daughter in law wants a quilt but couldnt decide on the pattern or colors so this way I can show her what the patterns look like and let her chose!

Sounds like fun! You should post pics for us to see :)
|
Ohhh! I would love the time to do that! We'd love to see pics of your blocks! Have you found a new favorite?
|
Sounds like a wonderful way to spend time! What a great way too, to try out different color ways, techniques :D:D:D

sounds like a sampler in your future!

glad you are having fun making blocks, please post pictures of them for us

Sounds like you are making your own encyclopedia of quilt blocks.

What a great idea!!

Thanks everyone. It IS fun to see how the blocks come together and the different ways that colors make the blocks change! My favorite are the browns and beigh colors or the red/white colors. Ill have to take pictures and have my son download them for me since my computer is acting weird. I belong to a block of the month club here in Boonville Mo and I had won 25 blocks right after I joined and it turned out really nice. Im thinking sampler but have to make enough of one color range to make it pretty! ITS FUN!!!
