I managed to get one more block done for my Dear Jane quilt – getting close to finishing the 5th row! Only 8 more rows to go which means 104 more of these 4 1/2 inch blocks!! and that is not even talking about the border. Oh well, the first time I made this quilt (Insanity) it took me 3 years and I imagine this second one will be around that too. This block is entitled Wagon Wheel and it is E-11.
I got a little more work done on the flying geese, but finally rearranged my sewing room a little once again to make room for the sewing machine and table. I had put them away because I wasn’t using them all that much but now that I have gotten on this crazy scheme to use up some of my scraps I am sewing a bit again. I was going to hand piece the units and I did about 10 of them that way but then finished up the units I had cut out with the machine instead. I have 32 units sewed together. I am going to put these together in the Dutchmen’s Puzzle pattern and then go from there and decide how large or how many borders this will be – will it be a quilt size or wallhanging? Not sure at this moment. I won’t take a picture until I decide a little more on color placement.
Yesterday’s question was What do the following have in common: Charm Quilts, Scrap Quilts, and Postage Stamp Quilts?
Answer is Quilts that used a wide variety of fabrics. I have made all of these, they are a fun way to get rid of your scraps. Here is an interesting article on Charm quilts it is from the Quilters Newsletter. Here is a link to my postage stamp quilt that I made a few years back. A postage stamp quilt is made using 1 1/2 inch squares – as many as you want or dare 
Scrap quilts are just as the name states, quilts made with scraps.
