I don't know why this block drive seems to be taking its time to get going. I have lots of blocks but other things seem to continually get in the way. Quilt #6 is this lovely sashed layout of just large 12" blocks. There wasn't enough of the red sashing material to sash around the outside. I still like how it turned out. I think all of these blocks and the red sashing material all came from Nann. This quilt measures 54 x 68". When the front blocks don't have a lot of patriotic fabrics in them, I like to add a patriotic backing. On this one, I put the blocks in rows and added a middle section of some orphan blocks I received. To make the flag blocks show up better, I used a print as the background. Karen sent in this amazing big blue starred fabric. It wasn't quite wide enough so I added in a red. This quilt measures 48 x 68". I sored out a stack of blocks that had a lot of turquoise shades in them. I think this one screams summertime! I also added in some small churn dash blocks for a bit of fun. A few of the blocks on the front have light houses in their centers so I thought this lighthouse fabric would be perfect on the back. To make it big enough I added in some red and some watermelon fabric. This quilt measures 60 x 72". If you still have some Churn Dash blocks to send in, please do it soon. It is almost time to announce the next block drive. I hope to make the sample blocks this weekend. I will give you a hint - we will be working with autumn colors. Everyone have a wonderful weekend!
