Testing 1, 2, 3 . . .

and 4, 5, 6!


When I start a new block project, I usually like to "test" a few blocks before I launch into the serious strip piecing, and that's what I accomplished tonight--the first six of twenty-five blocks.

Now I find myself wondering how white sashing would look between the blocks. Or maybe red sashing. Nah! White, for sure! Anyway, I can see I'm going to want to play around with this one a bit before it's done.

AND I still have no idea what I might end up with for the border, but I DO know one thing: Experimenting is a blast!

  5. This is such a cool block. Is this a pattern you are developing or is it already out there somewhere? I love how the individual pieces are simple but together it is more than the sum of its parts. I'll be watching as this one grows. Happy stitching-
