BlockBase Sew Along quilt block #2088 Rolling Nine Patch

Rolling Nine Patch

Wow! The Rolling Nine Patch block is block #11 in the BlockBase Sew Along.  Just 1 more block to go!

Chevrony again!

Chevrons and zig zags seem to be everywhere these days so I made my Chevrony quilt pattern again!  It's so easy and uses up a bunch of fat quarters which I seem to collect too many of!  Each row uses one fat quarter.  It can also be made using 5" charm squares.  Either way, it's a great way to use some of that stash you have. The quilt finishes at 48" x 64".   My new quilt is on the left and the original is on the right.  I think it looks great in any color scheme!

BlockBase Sew Along #1401

It's week number 8 in Electric Quilt's BlockBase Sew Along!

This block is called Borrow and Lend and is block #1401 in BlockBase.  Looks like four spools to me!

Anyway, it's super simple and can be made from 5" squares.

I chose to keep the background fabric the same and make each "spool" a different color.  I just thought that worked better with the other blocks I have made so
