 I've got four more tops that I pieced late last year. There may have been more last year but I am out of the habit of taking a picture.

This propeller quilt started out with an entirely different plan. I didn't like how it was looking so I abandoned the plan and trimmed some of the pieces as created this. All is well except I ran out of the background fabric but still have some of the offending patches left.  I'll have to get creative again. I was just sorting my batik scraps and I didn't think to even look at them.

It sure was fun making the blocks in the quit below.no wonder they are called Happy Blocks. I've kitted up this pattern with novelty prints for our kids comfort quilts. Yep fun and happy especially in bright colors 

I've already made a Monkey Wrench quilt colored like this and alternated the blocks with plain green squares. So this time the plan was the the Baltic Cross. I really liked the setting for these blocks. I'm going to have to find another block that will look as good arranged this way. I'm partial to this border on scrap quilts.

This last top is the Roman Stripes block set on point. My plan was to use a green leaf print. Funny how rummaging in the closet produces just what you need to make the quilt better than planned the blue triangles were donated years ago. I always thought to use them in a scrappy Roman Stripes quilt, just not in these blocks. Does your fabric make decisions for itself too?

I've been quilting the last week. I'll have to snap a few pictures to show you more.
