Design Wall Monday – November 8, 2010

November 8, 2010

On my design wall are the blocks made from leftover binding strips and some four patches.  These two blocks do not go in the same quilt!


What’s on your design wall?

Because you posted early, I had to follow your lead. I just got back from a wonderful Retreat and even met Judy D in person! Glad she could make it to visitus there. There are 3 projects I worked on at Retreat, I had ADHD this week-end.

Both blocks look bright and fun. Great way to use up leftover fabrics too.

I really appreciate the inspiration of Design Wall Monday. Each Friday, if I haven’t had time to sit and sew, I usually always make time during the weekend so that I have something to show here on Mondays. Thanks Judy !

I love the way you are using the left over binding fabric, the blocks look great. I was condiering making log cabin blogs out of mine, but I like your idea better.

Great use of leftover binding! I press mine flat and use it for other scrappy projects. Sometimes I make scrappy binding too.

It’d be a pretty wild quilt with both of those blocks in it!! I had a creative weekend at my house. Looking forward to some quilting time later this week.

Judy, the two blocks -could- go in the same quilt as the look good together on your wall :) Using your leftover binding pieces might just be the first step to using your scraps…..stop that!!! I’m still rooting for some colorful, fun Judy Laquidara scraps ;) He he he he…..

I’ve just joined up for your Design Wall Monday, because I think it will help keep me motivated to show progress!!! I’ve loved looking at everyone else’s in the past, so it will be a regular Monday stop for me.

I decided after enjoying the Monday design walls for quite a while I would try to
figure out how and join in!! It wasn’t as hard as I thought!! If you want to get inspired just spend some time looking at the creative projects these quilters are working on.
Thank you Judy for hosting these!!

wow – lots of new people who have design walls to check out. Judy – like those binding scrap blocks. Great way to use them. I stitch all my left over bindings together to go on scrappy quilts. Finally, I had some quilting time and actually have something up on the wall!

Sadly the same scrappy blocks that have been up for a while but I did get more Pinwheel blocks done last week.
