Potato Chips Quilt Blocks

Potato Chips Block

This is the start of a donation quilt using leftover fabrics from  previous quilts. 
The blocks are made with bright fabrics designed by Tula Pink and black and white fabrics.
The "potato chips" block instruction is from the YouTube channel: Conquering Mount Scrapmore with Brenda. 
I used the 2" by 3.5" "chips. The finished size of the block is 12 inches. 
She also give directions for other sizes of rectangles; and ideas for making different types of blocks.

Bakers Dozen Quilt

Humble Pie Quilt

This quilt top was made using the Bakers Dozen pattern by Jen Kingwell. I used a Gelato Ombre fat quarter bundle by Maywood Designs that I bought quite some time ago.

The quilt is 73" by 73" and I am calling mine: "Bakers Dozen Humble Pie." I can honestly say that I made most of the blocks more than once. So much un-sewing went on that I need a new seam ripper.

I will quilt it soon. But for now it needs to be in a corner so I can forget all the aggravation it has caused me. 😃
