2 more days of piecing

Here are the results of 2 days of piecing at the house. i HAD to come over to the studio today...cold or not....my 'to be quilted' pile is getting out of control with all this piecing. LOL

When i was at quilt class on Monday Mary showed us this cute block. quick and easy.

I made 8 in this colorway and 8 more like this.



Throw in some sashings and a few borders and i got this.


Of course, Mary's looked better because she used all tone on tone fabrics that were all the same values mainly and hers just flowed together well. in mine, as usual, i used up what was in my stash. it came out about 76" square. will be a donation quilt once it makes its way through the 'to be quilted' pile.

It would work really well with a jelly roll since those are 2.5" pieces...except for the center which is 4.5". i was chain piecing like mad and it was really fast. i used 9 fabrics.
