Inspiration for this Month’s Block

Posted by on March 2, 2017 in block lotto community | 3 comments

A few years ago, I started making a scrappy version of blocks like ours in 6 colors for the Rainbow Scraps Challenge. It took a couple of years for me to make the 121 blocks in this quilt top, using only fabrics from my scrap bins–these blocks have 24-32 different fabrics in each block:

The individual star blocks get a little bit lost, but I like the blendy effect. I am hoping to begin quilting it this month 😉

Last night, I saw this Broken Dishes quilt on Kathy’s Quilts and thought it could be a great setting idea for this month’s winners.

What do you think?

    Your rainbow scrap challenge quilt is beautiful. I like how it’s blendy too, I call it mushy! And yes, that is a good setting for the winners this month.
