Eileen's block


This is Eileen's block. It's called 'On a Whim'.

Fabrics are all supplied. The background is lavender, the hsq's on the corners are gray.

Daisy's block


Daisy's block is called 'Antique Tile'. It's 12.5" square. She'd like the colors where she's got them.

Colors: Dark brown, gold, green and a light that goes with the other colors.

Note: Daisy loves brown. This may be obvious.

Bonnie's double star


Bonnie's block is this great double star.

I'm looking forward to seeing a bunch of these together. Will she sash them? Will she not?

Stay tuned to answers to these questions.

Ruth's block


Now that I look at the picture, I see the value placement on Ruth's block.

Much to Daisy's happiness, Ruth has chosen browns, golds, ochre, olive greens for her block. Navy or brick red would be okay too.

No florals, Ruth says, this quilt is for a family member who has requested earth tones.

Terry's block part deux


A couple of years ago, Terry had us do this block which she called contrary husband.

No one would ever believe Terry's husband is contrary ... he's a peach.

We're doing this blue and white block again. Read 2012's block here.

Dorothy's block ... rerun


If you're paying attention, you'll notice a theme here ... it's repeating.

Several BE'ers have chosen to redo blocks from previous years ... no complaints here.

This is Dorothy's block. This year she had us sign up for the color she wants us to make. 
This will give her a little more balance. in the quilt overall.

You can see last year's post on this block here.

Carol's block ... repeat


This is Carol Schon's block. 
She's given us a choice of doing one of the last two year's worth of blocks.

For more posts about these blocks check out the 'confetti' and legos blocks post from last year.

She also is offering an opportunity to do the blocks from the previous year, a trip around the world strip set and a set of geese.
