Yes. I have been enticed to start the Riley Blake 2022 block challenge. I swear I wasn't going to, but the blocks have been too fun to not make them!
Why, you ask? Well, the more small pieces there are in a block, the more I like it!
Here is block #1 Daisy Chain designed by Lori Holt with 39 pieces.
Here is block #2 Sweetheart designed by Beverly McCullough with 42 pieces. I adore this one!
Each Tuesday one 10" block pattern is posted and there will be a total of 16 blocks. Each block pattern comes from a different designer, some of whom I recognize and some I don't.

I don't have a plan for these blocks and am just making the blocks from whatever is on my cutting table. And because I am a long time member of the rainbow scrap challenge, I am surrounded by red scraps this month. These blocks might be turned into placemats, or might become a sampler quilt. I'm waiting for some inspiration to make make that decision.

A few leader-ender fish blocks are being made too!
That second block is perfect for the lead up to Valentine’s Day!
ReplyDeleteIt is fun when new quilts just demand to be made. Those are highly adorable blocks. The fish are also adorable. Looks like you've had a good sewing week.
ReplyDeleteWoohoo, more fabric out for Stashbusters!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a fun sew along. When I saw how nice your blocks looked, I was tempted to go and make some blocks! Happy stitching, the blocks are lovely!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blocks! Those reds are so pretty. It's dangerous to read your blog (especially that post about the mystery quilt alongs), there is just too much temptation!
ReplyDeleteThose 10" blocks are beautiful, especially the one with the heart. A wonderful new project.
ReplyDeleteGreat blocks! I love the sweetheart one, and great reds!
ReplyDeleteYou're off to a good start with the block challenge, Kathy. LOVE those RED fish, too!!
ReplyDeleteI made the first three Blocks last night. LOL Squirrel!! Couldn't not do the Lori Holt Block then I saw the Sweetheart Block and had to cut into more Blue Fabrics. Thanks for counting the pieces.
ReplyDeleteI think those are beautiful blocks! Pretty in reds and pinks. I say, "Why not?!" :)
ReplyDeleteOh no this one I might be able to tackle!! What have you done..you enabler you!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, you are incorrigible, Kathy! LOL
ReplyDeleteGreat looking blocks. I can see why they drew you in.
Love those Riley Blake blocks! I'm trying to resist temptation, but the Daisy Chain block would make a great quilt!
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty blocks!
ReplyDeleteBlocks with lots of little pieces? Of course, it's right up your alley. Who cares if you've started a gazillion other projects? I know you'll have fun.
