Laid a few out to get an idea.
This is really a quick block and great idea for using scraps. Easy quilt for kids quilt!
I am making more of those using them as leaders and enders on my next project!
While pulling out fabric to send to a friend I came across a kit that I bought a long time ago. Our first trip to Palo Duro Canyon and Amarillo had to be 2003 or 2004. Of course we stopped at a quilt shop in Amarillo-Sister's Scraps. I bought the Starry, Starry Night quilt kit.
Just me and the girls at home for a few days so maybe I can get lots accomplished in between things that need to be done! Eventually it should look something like this!
Looks like Cartwheel is a great way to use up scraps. How big are your finished blocks?
ReplyDeleteThe blocks are 8.5 unfinished. The rectangles are 2.5 x 4.5. This is the link to the Moda Bakeshop pattern if you want to see it

I love designs from simple blocks. This one is great! What a nice thing to do for your friend. I love the Starry Nights. Sometimes it's fun to step away from our fabric choices and work something new. It's going to be very pretty.
ReplyDeleteWhile I am working on this I keep thinking of how great it would look in batiks! Maybe later, have plenty of batiks in the stash!
DeleteYour cartwheel blocks are too cute! What a great idea for scrap busting.
