I miss having a night project to sew on while I watch Netflix. During the daytime I need to be working on finishing the spin block wallhangings. I pulled out this assortment of 6.5" squares which I cut a few years ago. They are not batiks. There are 74 here and I have another 93 squares that are duplicates of some of them. I can make it 11 squares by 15 squares (66" x 90") with them.
Vicki Welsh is making a version of this quilt with batiks. See it here. As much as I would like to do it in batiks, I need to use these squares that I have already cut. The skinny strip is cut 1" so you basically can slice the square anywhere you want, sew the 1" strip in with an accurate 1/4" seam and you will still have a 6.5" square.
This is the book that the inspiration quilt (above) is in. All I need to do now is decide what fabrics will be cut into the 1" strips to insert in the blocks. I have a few ideas to try today.
