One Old, 3 New, Sorbet Blocks<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The above blocks are the blocks I made over the weekend. Except for the one in the lower left hand corner, which I made last week. I put it in to make the photo square and so you wouldn’t see my ugly carpet.<\/p>\n

2 Sorbet Blocks, August 2009<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Last week I made two blocks for the Sorbet quilt (left). They sat on my design wall all week and as I looked at them a new idea formed in my head: a baby.<\/p>\n

When I made these, I just wanted to make some of the quickest blocks to cut and sew. I wanted to get some endorphins going and some quick satisfaction.<\/p>\n

What I didn’t realize was that these two could be merged to make yet another block. I didn’t need to make a pattern, which is part of the fun and joy of this quilt.<\/p>\n

I can’t shake the idea that these two blocks got together and had a baby!<\/p>\n

The others I made were from the patterns I already designed in EQ6. I think this quilt will be one that I can longarm myself.<\/p>\n

Not really sure why the above block is called Four Patch Corner. I didn’t make up the name, it was in EQ6.<\/p>\n

Regular old 9 Patch fits the size and shape requirements. Easy to make and I think it looks great.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
