greg's leftovers quilt....



i did not make this block pattern up....first saw & was inspired by Lori @ Humble Quilts when i saw it on her blog, which i know most of you have followed way before me...didn't pay attention to her block size & did do a different layout....
my finished block size is 6"
the four patches were made with 1&1/4" strips
the alternate squares are 2" for small & 3&1/2" for large
i made 100 squares and most are with a light & dark four patch & one background but then every once in a while i threw in a more scrappy looking block for just because....

my favorite homespun.....



was so disappointed to learn that Indo US would not be printing any homespun fabrics any longer, has always been my background fabric of choice....now I'm excited to let you know that Michelle Fat Quarters owner has found for me & you the perfect replacement fabric same feel & colors, especially the red solid, as i use it lots and it is the red used for the winter project in Primitive Quilts & other Projects...
