Hi everyone, Happy New year to all. Here are my 6 chevron blocks for January. Thanks Sophie for all your hard work....

I love the theme Sophie’s chosen for 2014.  I think it will make a great group of blocks.  I was a lucky winner last month, so I’ll donate these four chevrons for January.  Kathie...

My humble first entry of four, made from my stash. I am actually out of both brown and gray fabrics. My stash busting is working. 🙂 ~Lorraine...

It’s been a long time since I’ve been able to participate!  Here are 3 blocks.  I’d like to donate them.  I have way too many UFOs to add another...

Here’s my six chevron blocks for...

  Amazing – here I am in the very beginning of January with my blocks not only made, but uploaded to the website. Whatever next!  I’m sure it will go downhill from here and I’ll be back to scraping through at the end of the month…  Happy New Year,...

Please put these down as three to donate. But if you want to make a note that mine need to go to two different winners...

I love these blocks. Unfortunately I only have enough of the right colors to make these three. I know that they will make a great...

Yesterday had a high of -8F so I stayed inside last night &finished up 8 chevrons.   I think 6 are the limit so here they are: They look nicer in...

There are many many others, but here are some chevron or zig-zag quilts I’ve seen lately.  A few, like the first two here, are older than you might guess.   This one is called simply Zig Zag Pattern has been dated as 1901-1929. It was made  by Viola Haeline Dollar Lake in Lumber City, Georgia. I found it on the Quilt Index site.   I also found this even older two color example, dated as 1850-1875, with vertical zig zags,...
