This block also works great in a scrappy rainbow quilt. This layout makes me want to dig into my scrap bins right now!
My block can work fabulously showing off your favorite fabric collection, too. Here, I'm showing it using Denyse Schmidt's Shelburne Falls line, due to hit shops later this fall.
Pssst....would you like to win a copy of Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks, Volume 6 for yourself? There's tons of beautiful blocks in it, I highly recommend it. Leave me a comment here, and the winner will receive a copy of the newest volume of Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks as well as my newest pattern, Sea of Stars, which will be released tomorrow! Please be sure to come back to see it :) Entries will be accepted through midnight EST Friday, November 9th, and I will announce the winner on that same day.
