9/3/14 Note: Diana just found an error in Block 26! Do NOT cut the 5 1/4″ Red Square on both diagonals. Leave it whole to make Flying Geese Four At Once! Thanks!
Time again for a pieced block! I love throwing these pieced blocks in with our appliqué blocks. It adds an extra depth to the quilt!

Mid Century Modern Sampler Quilt: Borders

WooHOO!
We are ready for the BORDER on our Mid Century Modern quilt! And the border is…

Color Blocks! We are repeating (or re-interpreting!) the design of the Tustin Color Block, this time using the Background as the “Sashing” instead of the Light, making a fine finish to our Mid Century design.
Here is the Border Pattern PDF….

************* SHOP **************
Please do check out my Craftsy Pattern Store where you can purchase immediate downloads of my patterns… and some new free patterns too!
My Staycation Jelly Roll Quilt is Available on Craftsy.
A Staycation is when you vacation at home. Any time in my sewing room is a Staycation for me! So make this lovely quilt on your next Staycation! Using 2 1/2″ strips from a Bali Pop or a Jelly Roll or a swap or your own stash, this quilt goes together pretty easy with just a few tricks.
Do you see the circles or wreaths? Wouldn’t this be grand in Christmas prints? Or Autumn? Wow! I think I need to make another Staycation quilt!
Thanks!
