Design Wall 10-15-12

Rats!  I'm working on secret stuff again so I can't post a picture of what I'm working on.  So, I will post a picture of the quilt made from these blocks that I showed last week. 
One of the retreaters taught us how to make this block... which produces two blocks at a time.  We all made at least one block and she made them into baby quilts to donate to our normal charity.  
This looks like sherbet to me.  Yum! 


And here is one with bright fabrics.  I believe we had enough blocks to make 3 baby quilts.  Really a fun, easy block.  If you want more inspiration go to Patchwork Times to visit design walls across the internet. 

On to my weekly goals:

I'm not putting a whole lot on the list this week. I may pull out a UFO to use as a leader ender while working on Scrap Squad #5.  I like what I've done with it so far.  

Happy Quilting All!

  2. These blocks make darling baby quilts - so clever of your group to use them for that project rather than have orphan blocks.
