Not my quilt - it's a pattern photo - isn't it pretty!
Blog reading is still a dangerous activity for me, and this squirrel was inspired by Robin at I Like To Create (go look at the version she is creating - I love it!) The pattern is Smores by Jo Morton. This is one of those quilts that looks bigger than it is (only 57 inches square), and those finished squares are only four inches! I'm not sure yet if I'll have the patience for anything that small, but we'll see. I may want to enlarge it, but that would potentially involve quilt math, at which I usually falter.
I bought Blocks By The Square by Jodi Barrows to have more
background and reference for "square in a square" blocks.
Book photo - Scrappy Star by Fons and Porter
Another "have to have it" book I recently purchased was Fat Quarter Friendly from Fons and Porter. I saw a quilt on Instagram made by Rachel Hayes, and I loved it so much I asked her for the pattern name. The pattern is Scrappy Star, and you can see her gorgeous version right here on her blog.
Here is a sneak peek at the subject of my next post - a tour of my "new" sewing room! I've been busy rearranging and moving (sore muscles and bruises to boot) and have a new setup I am enjoying. Until then, hope you are having a great week!
