DWM: disappearing four-patch

At the moment I'm in a holding pattern regarding quilting.  "Must do" projects are finished and I don't need to begin the next commitment projects (such as the Christmas quilts for the library and AAUW).  I leave for ALA this Thursday and I have my take-along hexagons ready to go.  (ALA in Anaheim means a trip to M&L Fabrics and I will be better prepared to shop than I was  the last time.

Still, I want to be working on something! 

These 3" blocks began with four 2.5" squares, sewn as four-patches, then cut and reassembled.  I'm not sure where this project is going....a wall-hanging may be just right.

Check out what other quiltmakers (more ambitious than I) are working on at Judy's Patchwork Times.

  1. I love the colors and this is one of my favorite patterns that I could make again and again. In fact, I have. :)
