100 Small Blocks

Something else I finished.

It's a pattern from the book 

Modern Heritage Quilts.

I love this book! 

This is the best photo I have right now. 

I'm still daylight challenged...

I think I actually finished it on a rainy weekend.

I used my leftovers from a project earlier this year. 

There are a variety of low volume fabrics and

a dash of Zen Chic.

It was a perfect pattern for it... it just uses the 

smallest of scraps!

There are 100 of the small plus blocks... fair warning!

I also used the same leftovers in this quilt.

I had purchased this unique panel and a junior layer cake.

I don't usually like panels but this one was so artsy!

I had it finished pretty quickly (an advantage of using a panel)

even though there are about 100 blocks in it.

At least these are 4 1/2" blocks... the quilt above was 3 1/2" blocks.

It's called Thicket.

The pattern can be found for free. 

Here is another free pattern using Thicket at Moda Bake Shop.

I have a couple of little things to make using the leftover panel animals...

maybe a little pillow and a stuffed toy with ribbon tags on it.

It is going to be for the arrival of my grand little...

coming December 1st!

Or maybe... this:

I was feeling good about getting it finished and to my long arm quilter...

but my LAQ liked it so much that she requested a little trade...

An offer

I couldn't 

refuse!

I will be making another  one...

but not until the first of the year!

(I'm not showing her the tote though)!
