Play time -


Continued today -

I couldn't help myself -

I had to see what the rest of my QST version of -

One-Block Wonder (OBW) looked like - ;))

Sunday's six are on the left -

Today's twelve are on the right -


And some close-ups -



I got a total of 18 blocks -

So figured 4x4 would use 16 with 2 extra -

I6 are not bad -


And 2 are boring -
So it worked out nicely - LOL -

But now that I look at it -
I might switch out the last one in the second row for the top boring one -
I like the middle better - ;))


Then I had to play with the 4-Patch Posies -

I got twelve from the strip -


And I like how they look like painted tiles -

But I really think that the fabric pattern is too "sparse" -

And that there is too much of the blue background - ;))





Now I have to decide what I want to do with the rest of the yardage -


I can get 4 more complete repeats -

And have another 16 inches or so of two more repeats -

So if I wanted to make a triangle version -

I could get 6 repeats from at least part of it -

Hmmm - I wonder how many blocks I could make -

And what would they look like? - LOL - ;))



Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -

  1. I don't think that fabric is too sparse at all. Some of the one block wonders make my head hurt with their busyness and this one is much more calming. And I think using that extra chunk for the back of the quilt would be perfect - folks could see what the fabric was before and after!

  2. Ha ha... Katie beat me to it. I was going to say to use the remainder for backing.

  3. I like the posy blocks. The QST are not as interesting.

    Yes, use the fabric for the backing so that there is an example of the original fabric.
