Take a break
If you have a few minutes and need a break, do go look over at Marcia's
www.quilterscache.com and check out the pattern Squares within Squares 2. It's a good, good block for beginners, one of those that doesn't require a heap of accuracy and a great base for doing all sorts of interesting things. I just tried it with 9 blocks (a Linus quilt) to see how it went. The block is a keeper. The colors I chose are not. I used a soft yellow print, a bright blue paisley with some purple in it and a medium purple. Somehow, the purple turned all muddy on me. Which certainly proves that testing a block *And* testing the colors is worth the time. I would truly hate to make a queensize muddy quilt. Yuck and phooey. Polly |
