Started the blocks

June 9, 2009

I started making the blocks for quilt #2 (I think I need to come up names for these quilts instead of numbers.) It is actually harder to put together a free-form quilt than it looks. It’s like making a crazy quilt square, you really do have to plan what you are doing. On the first block (the one on the right) I made one side too small and had to add more fabric in order to get the block to square up. You can see where I had to add fabric on the bottom of the block.

The second block just got kind of wonky looking. I think the orange with purple swirls strip is a bit too wide, but I’m not ripping it out now.

I’m going to do two more blocks for this quilt and then call it finished. But, I really am enjoying this type of quilting so I may make some different versions.
