Design Wall Monday, April 16, 2012


Nothing up on the wall, but I've got main fabrics figured out for the fourth Quilt Square Quilt Along block for April.  Jo had us select any other design we wanted in Lori Smith's Quilt Squares #1 pattern.  I'm not certain I'll have enough variety in my stash of each color selected for the nine units.  Notice that the HSTs are all different in each of the units.  I'll be digging into my stash a bit more or maybe just make the HSTs for each color the same.  That is each of the nine units being only two fabrics.  Yeah sounds a bit boring... 


The background fabric for my April UFO with Patchwork Times is enroute from Keepsake Quilting.  Once it arrives I'll be racing to get Kommodore done before the end of the month.  Its Judy's Indigo design free on her website.

Hope you have a nice week spending time in your sewing room.  Check out others design walls via Patchwork Times.

I like the quilt square you have chosen. It is a small photo and it won't enlarge for me so I could be wrong, but in the photo it sure looks like there are repeats in the points. I don't think it would be boring at all. I made one of Lori's little quilts where each center square was a different color than the others, and the star points around each center were just a lighter shade of the same center color. I don't know that I described that very well, but I really liked the look. : )

The block you chose is great. It is perfect for a scrap quilt too.

Looks like a very ambitious block. Good luck with your scrap search.

Looking forward to seeing this new quilt come together. I would search my stash for variety. Have a super day!

First one is my favorite with the pink center and the squares. You will get a nice secondary design with the squares
