scraps cut and ready to sew into a block
October 2018 |
Sara (
My Sewing Room) has been making
Ritzy Cracker blocks for several months, and I loved them more as her pile of blocks grew. Sara made her blocks with 5" squares of fabric, but I had a pile of 4.5" squares cut from fabric scraps. I decided to make some of the blocks - oh my, this block is definitely a "potato chip" project, as it's hard to stop making the blocks.

| prototype block made with two 4.5' scrap squares |
I made a prototype block with two 4.5' squares: the squared block is 7" which will finish at 6.5" in a quilt. For an adequate sized Quilt of Valor, I will need 72 blocks.
Ritzy Cracker Quilt pattern can be found on Moda Bake Shop site.
Such a funny name and for a minute I thought you had named your sewing room Sara LOL
ReplyDeleteAt first I also thought you had named your sewing room Sara! So funny. What a pretty block. It does look like a lot of work, but such a great way to use up scraps. Blessings always, Betsy
ReplyDeleteOh gee! Another one for the queue!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun block!! You do such pretty work.
ReplyDeleteThey are quite addictive to make. And this reminds me that I still need to put mine together into a quilt top.
ReplyDeleteNow that's my kind of piecing! I love it.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like such fun!! And what a funny name too - I like it!
ReplyDeleteNow that is a different setting which will make a great quilt!
ReplyDeleteHave fun with that pile of 'potato chips'!
