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

  5. 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!
