Crossroads Wheel Progress

I now have 25 of 36 blocks made. This was supposed to be a long-term project, but it's been so much fun designing each block as its own palette! 


A friend asked me to show the blocks in groups of four, so here goes: 








One block needs a little fix. The center fabric in it is used in another block, so I have pinned a replacement swatch over it. It's an easy fix. 

I have 11 more blocks to go. A friend with whom I often trade scraps gave me some prints that will work, and she shopped for me via phone photos at retreat. Can't wait to get my hands on the new prints when she gets home! 

Meanwhile, I have 9 of 11 backgrounds. I'll have to go shopping after I get a few more blocks made with the fabrics on hand, so I'll pick up a couple more backgrounds then.

  3. Smart to pin the replacement pin to the block that needs the change. It's looking great and it's fun you will be getting fabric from a friend for it!

  6. So fun looking up close at the groups of four. Hard to pick a favorite block but top right in the 4th group and top left in the 5th group are contenders;-). Love the fussy cut leaves in the arms of the top left in the first group.

  8. I know a couple others who have made this quilt and they, too, indicated the block making process was slightly addictive and very satisfying. Your version is lovely!
