I'm making a sampler of two of all your Addicted to Scraps blocks in red/white/blue, so of course I had to jump in and do my two new blocks before dinner. I am swapping off the color placement in the two blocks of each pattern so in this case I put the blue corners on the red/white pinwheel and the red corners on the blue/white one. It looks pretty good that way too - just an idea that the blocks wouldn't have to be monochromatic. This sort of "color sharing" links the blocks together and would make a nice four patch at the intersecting corners. Thanks for the column - I have enjoyed making all these different blocks. When I have decided I have enough and assemble the quilt I will be sure to send a link to my blog post with its picture.The Calico Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01772374749065425388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-50940336561193114082012-12-01T09:53:14.781-05:002012-12-01T09:53:14.781-05:00My copy came on Thursday.

Meanwhile, Ceiling Fan is fun...easy...and will look SO good with scraps. <br /><br />Bonnie, how do you come up with the Addicted to Scraps blocks? Just noodling around, or do you have a plan? Do you make up a whole bunch of any one block to see how they'll look before you send the sample? Do they send the sample back to you?

I am so accustomed to her methods with the Easy and Companion Angle ruler that work with precut strips that I am spoiled.

I found the copy of Quiltmaker at Amazon so I can make Moth in the Window, someday. Then I subscribed for the first time and digitally. I hope this way I can at least find my issues. I subscribed for your column, but have fallen in love with all of the magazine. I finally got the recent issue. I have been looking for it for the last two weeks. They can't come often enough. Thanks for all the inspiration. Got to go find QuiltCam.

The others have just gotten to much of the same ol' same ol'. I will admit to browsing through the others at the store and if I see something that sparks me, I'll pick it up, but QM is the only one that I buy every issue. I was just sitting here finishing up another project before I start on Step #2 and was wondering...."what's Bonnie up to?" so I just had to sign on and see!
