Last of the Light Blues

For the time being anyway. ;- ) I've forsaken the big Ohio Stars for smaller stars and Wrench blocks.


Those are 9" stars and wrenches that will finish at 7.5". Oh, there's one 6" shoo-fly block and one 10" wrench in the collection too. 

I've been sewing up other scraps this week as well:



My stand-by 6" blocks and a few more stars and wrenches Oh look, there are a couple of light blue blocks in there. I'd forgotten about them! I tried out a couple of Bouncing Betty blocks (also known as Crosses & Losses). Not sure whether they will develop into the project I had in mind when I made the blocks. When I couldn't focus on a specific project I sewed up leftover triangles into Broken Dishes units. 

I'm looking forward to the new color to be announced in a few days. In the meantime I'm linking up with the other RSC bloggers today over at SoScrappy. There's a lot of inspiration to be had in those other blogs!

  4. With your lovely Ohio stars, you've just reminded me that I also wanted to make an Ohio star quilt next. *sigh* I can start three quilts, right?
    I love all your blocks (especially that wavy monkey wrench. And the stars. And the broken dishes.) Your design wall is inspiring!

  7. Your blocks are inspiring. I like your philosophy of making Broken Dishes blocks when you hit your imagination limits.
