stack of scrappy blocks
April 2018 |
Remember the stack of
four-patch blocks, I made from my 2.5 inch scrap bin in early March? I combined them with some half-square triangles to make twenty
Jacob's Ladder blocks.

These blocks will become a Quilt of Valor similar to
Melting Pot, made in 2015
Very pretty. The little neutral blocks really make the colors pop!
ReplyDeleteI don’t think there is a quilt you have made that I didn’t like. I really like how the centers of these resemble a ladder. Very cool.

What a great quilt! I looked back at the other one and love it. Especially the backing. I am going to keep this idea for a scrappy QOV in the future.
ReplyDeleteI love a scrappy quilt!
ReplyDeleteOh my it looks great!
ReplyDeleteVery nice Nancy! I, too, went back to look at the one from 2015 - gorgeous!! And love how you used the extra scraps on the back.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful scrappy blocks! I love the Jacob's Ladder block - scrappy or planned, it always looks great.
ReplyDeleteOh - I like that idea - another one to add to the to-do pile!
ReplyDeleteI love the combination of the four patch and the ladders. I found a photo of us driving through Wyoming yesterday. The welcome sign was surrounded by flat and open land. I remember feeling it was so remote. Your posts make it seem like people really live in that great State.
ReplyDeleteKudos for getting those 9 patches a new home! I've made 4 patches or 9 patches in the past and then let the sit in a drawer. I congratulate you on getting them in blocks -- which I KNOW you will get into a quilt sooner rather than later!
ReplyDeleteHow nice the fabrics work out together!!!!! I like the scrappy yet orderly look of these blocks!
ReplyDeleteSo creative. When I saw the stack of squares, I had no idea where you were going. Then you put the together so perfectly!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I love this one.
ReplyDeleteJacob's Ladder is a great looking block!
