Yet Another?

Guess what?!? I am starting another block project - Moda Blockheads #4. 

I participated in Blockheads #1 and Blockheads #2, but forbid myself to start #3 until the first two were completed quilts. Well, I'm sad to say they are still unfinished quilts AND I missed out on Blockheads #3. But this time my dear quilting friend Diane "needs" me to sew along with her, so I'm doing it to help her. Any excuse will do to start a new project! 😄 

I that they are offering patterns for each block in 2 sizes, and of course the miniature block 4.5" is my favourite. This time I am not starting out with a coordinated group of fabrics. I'm just sewing from scraps and plan to make blocks for fun. They might end up in a placemat, or a mug mat, or a scrappy lap quilt. I might only make the first block or make all the blocks. I'm giving myself permission to play and have fun - thank you Cheryl Arkison!

Here is the link to block #1 if you'd like to try it.

    Thank you for the link to Blockheads #4. I never did get to making the first 3, but I did save the patterns.

    How in the world did you stop yourself from doing #3?? Why did the world not stop turning, or the sun stop shining? LOL I am eager to see your 4/5" blocks as you participate. Won't they be cute?

    I've seen a few of these blocks appear in my feed recently, but yours is my absolute favourite! It's very striking.

    Me too! I saw the book of Blockheads 1 and loved the Jan Patek version. So, it motivated me to get started. I made the first block today.
