Scrappy Blueness…

At Heritage Quilting last Monday, Carol was busy pinning together this beauty…getting her ready for quilting!! 

P1240112

This was one of the ‘Monthly Blocks’ and Carol happened to be the lucky winner!  Every month Heritage members are given the opportunity to participate.   Those who do, are given the block pattern and the ‘rules’ for that month…in this case it was to use blue fabric.  If you make more than one block, then you are given that many chances of winning ALL of the blocks at the end of the month.  The idea is the more you make, the greater your chances are at winning!!

  I love this quilt…P1240113

This was the block…

P1240114

…and together they are visually stunning!

The blocks are big so this would be a fast and easy quilt to make.

I also love the way Carol finished this quilt off…with the white border..and the sweet mini block in each corner!

And thank YOU for popping in…I always enjoy your little visits!~P

    Beautiful blue and white quilt. I like the idea of doing something in blue with creams.

    It's gorgeous. I'm working on the very same quilt. Except I am sewing all the blocks myself. I have 30 to go. I love the little block in the corner. I might do something like that too. Sweet!

    The blocks really complement each other. Sometimes a swap like that can be kinda "questionable"... LOL

    I'm not usually a "blue" person, but that is lovely.

    This is a great quilt. I have many of these blocks sitting, waiting to be sewn together. Perhaps I'll get at that tomorrow!
