Last week, I stumbled across the Moda Be My Neighbor Pattern Club and printed the first two patterns. And then I actually got a few quality hours with my sewing machine...
These blocks are HUGE. I know, the measurements are right there on the pattern, but my brain wasn't quilt processing how big an 18" block actually would be. I rarely work with pieces this big and, after making these first two blocks I don't plan on changing my ways.
What this quilt really has going for it, besides houses, is that I can make it with my existing fabric stash and it'll be a great utility quilt when it's done.

Beautiful block! This looks like fun!
ReplyDeleteLove your blocks. I've been saving these patterns in hopes of finding time to make it someday.
ReplyDeleteI just ran across this one today. I printed the first patterns and hope to dig into my scraps tomorrow :) I'll enjoy sewing along with you.
ReplyDeleteLove your block, love big blocks, don't like little pieces. LOL
ReplyDeleteLove seeing all the blocks appearing on the internet
ReplyDeleteI think this pattern looks like fun, too, I have been collecting the patterns, but with 59 UFO's on my list I think I will not be starting it this year, but who knows??? I will be happy to see yours as you go along!
ReplyDeleteBig blocks make for fast quilts :) Love your color choices. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so much nicer in fabric instead of grayscale! I am tempted to do this one, but not sure how I'll proceed with a color plan. I will be watching yours grow. lol
ReplyDeleteLovely work! I started it as well and am so glad I did! I look forward to seeing your progress! :)
