Woo hooo! I played today!


Thanks to Tonya from Lazy Girl Quilting and Lynn from Klein Meisje Quilts I started playing with my scraps today.  I have a pile of old fabric left over from quilts I've made in the past, but they are primitive, girly florals, brights, you name it!  So when I saw Tonya's Lego's quilt I liked the idea.  I let it stew in my head some.  What was stopping me was all the different lengths.  I waste way too much time stressing over them!

So when I saw Lynn's version it was just what I needed!  And the constant solid was just what I loved, for a bit of stability!  I also got a ruler to make pineapple blocks at the Chicago quilt show a few weeks ago and that ruler uses the same size strips! So I can start cutting away!

Here are my first few blocks. Of course they will be more scrappy once I get more fabric cut, but I just had to make a few!  Do you like?
