Hi all,

I decided to design my own quilt instead of following a pattern. I have decided to use all the tradtional block that I love.
They are all 4.5"

PS for now I am going to post the pics on my serial quilter album, due to not being able to put them here.

Hey, Becca! Those are great! they look just like the 12" Amish blocks we made in our guild's Lotto Block exchange a few years ago!! My daughter would like me to put them into a quilt for her!

I am trying to make mostly tiny blocks myself - the house we are building has little wall space - I wanted lots of windows, and it's open concept LR/DR/Kit. with four doors leading in/out of the kitchen.

Are these the blocks you were having "problems" with sashing size?
Anyway, great job, and I hope we see lots more blocks. Hey, are you drafting the blocks yourself, or using books? I know Judy Hopkins three books (Around the Block series) has block sizes from 4-14" - that's partly what I want to use, but also the JB and Sentimental Stitches sites.

Are you using black thread to do your sewing? Can I give you a tip I learned when we did our big blocks? Use a dark grey - it's much easier to see if you need to frog (rip it, rip it)

Yes Gerda these are the blocks Im having trouble deciding how to sash. I think im going to use black and make the sashing 1" finished

Becca
I love your blocks they are gorgeous and the black background makes each block just pop. Can't wait to see more.

Becca! Good for you for breaking out on your own! Who knows who you might inspire to do the same!
