Hello again, I hope you've all been enjoying the lovely weather.
My friend Katy Jones had some blocks made but no time to make them into a quilt - so I adopted them -
The dies Katy used are

These dies all work together to create 10" finished blocks.
You could make this a scrappy quilt or you could choose co-ordinating fabrics - it will look good whichever way you choose.
So next week the instructions will begin - in the meantime have fun sewing or just enjoying the sunshine.

Hello again, I hope you've all been enjoying the lovely weather.
My friend Katy Jones had some blocks made but no time to make them into a quilt - so I adopted them -
and chose a plain fabric for sashing, borders, binding and backing - I decided to keep it plain as there were so many colours in the blocks, and I think they look great -
Over the next few weeks I'll put the instructions for the blocks on this blog - this week I can tell you that finished quilt measures 71" x 58". I used 6 metres of plain fabric (42" wide) for the backing, binding, borders and sashing.The dies Katy used are
