Trial Blocks

Before cutting up my precious Oakshott for the bloghop I tried out my trellis block design on some Kona solids



 And also in some print fabrics

As these are printed I did have to cut reverse triangles ...ie use my template flipped over on the other side.   

 As I would love to see a quilt in this block I tried it out with a Picmonkey mosaic of the blocks I have made...




And then I tried this colourway on EQ

Much quicker to make an electric quilt of course but I like it's  potential....and I could play with the colours for hours!

 The bloghop continues and today is the turn of my Siblings Together Beemate Sonia - you should see her fabulous rose themed project

    Fun to see what a whole quilt would look like!! I sent you an invoice for the destash - did you get it? Perhaps I had a typo in it? Let me know asap if you are still wanting those fabrics :) Cheers!

    I see you've been busy with projects that look suspiciously new but which you're going to attempt to pass off as 'essential preparation'...I shall consult the handbook.

    P.S. LOVE them all!

    Wow! Fabulous blocks. I'm partial to the blue and green one, but they are both lovely.
