I have a couple of things up on the wall today. My leaders and enders project which is well on its way to becoming a real quilt. It's a pattern from this book which I bought for the quilt on the cover. They have named the quilt "Make Your Point", and since I'm terrible at coming up with quilt names, I'll use that one. I have enough of the 16 patches now made up to do the entire centre of the quilt, and a couple of the borders. I think I'll do the remainder out of strips, so I can get this one done. Here's what I have so far: It's a bit different from some 16 patch and pinwheels I've seen, due to the changing direction of the pinwheels. I love the secondary pattern that the pinwheel blocks form, almost like the 16 patch blocks are framed by the triangles. I'm planning on focusing on this quilt until I get it done, except, of course, that I need to find another leader and ender project. And then, there are the Fat quarter stars quilt along blocks. I'm a bit behind on these. The 3rd block is still in pieces. If I have a bit of time after writing this, before I have to head to work, I'm going to see if I can't it at least partially sewn together.
There are lots more design walls to see over at Judy Laquidara's Patchwork Times If you have a few minutes, go on over for a visit.
Love "Make Your Point" -- great quilt and great name! Such pretty fabrics, it just sparkles.

I like this design and the secondary pattern is great. A super big project you've got going and it's looking super inviting.
ReplyDeleteLovely Leaders and Enders project. I'm always collecting fun ideas for setting together 4 and 16 patches, I'll have to remember this one. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteMake your Point is a great quilt. I made it too when the pattern was in a magazine! I like the colors in yours.
