I can not believe I am already at block 6 of my bright sampler quilt. This week’s block is called the Morrison…
The pattern is once again from Julie’s Block Rock’n collection. You can find the free paper piecing pattern here, along with different layouts for the block. In Julie’s test block she does more with the center of the block which I really like, and which makes for a quite different pattern.
The Morrison is not to complex a pattern and uses only 40 pieces of fabric… perfect for the scrappy approach.
As I have made it to 6 blocks, I could finally lay out the blocks and see how the quilt is coming together.
I am pleased with what I have so far. I do love how the colour pops against the neutral grey background. Six down, quite a few more to go…. so see you back here next week for installment 7.
LOVE the brights with the grays!
Very pretty! Love how they all look together so far.
love your colors!
Wow! That’s really cool. I love how they are coming together!
Hi Cath…..your paper piecing blocks are just fabulous. Love the colour choice. Marie
Thanks Marie. I was not sure at first if my colour choices would work, but it is coming together nicely.
Dazzling!
FAB! They look amazing together. It is going to be a gorgeous finish.
This is just beautiful! I love the way the colours pop against the greys. My favourite so far has to be the orange block 🙂
Love it so far!
They look awesome all together!
Your Caldonia and Icky Thump are my faves!
You almost make me want to try paper piecing. Almost. They are beautiful, though!
Hi! I was visiting from 627Handiworks blog hop and LOVE your blocks. The main color and then one accent color may be limiting to stick to for you but I think that they are going to be a stunning quilt when they are completed. I look forward to following you and seeing the completed top. (Glad you are feeling better enough to quilt now too!)
Glad you found me. I have loved making this quilt with the patterns from 627Handworks. Julie’s Block Rock’n is soooo fun. I have found the limited palette frustrating at times but I think it will be worth the extra grief in the end. B
Hi! I am visiting from 627Handiworks and the blog hop that you are in. I LOVE your choice of colors for the blocks. I had never thought of using one main color and an accent color. You may feel a bit limited in your choices but I think that it is going to be stunning when it is completed. I look forward to seeing the blocks as they progress and your finished quilt.
ONLY 40 pieces?!? Amazing. They look great together– I love the gray/brights plan.
love, love, love!!!!
I’m still behind on everyone’s blogs, but I picked your feed on Bloglovin and saw a whole stack of these blocks, right together–they look so awesome together! They are going to be an amazing quilt. I can’t decide whether this new pink block is my favorite, or the aqua… 🙂
I am really pleased with how this new sampler is coming together. I am just scared I am going to run out of colours before the end!
the group shot is so awesome!! This is going to be an amazing quilt { because it already is!}
