Last year on Cheri Paynes blog quilts by Cheri, she made a little quilt each month and shared the pattern with us, I made a few of them and a few I still wanted to make.  This one was inspired by one of hers, I just loved the big chunky borders and the tiny blocks.  My blocks are larger then hers, mine are 2" finished 4patches and I added another row of blocks.  You can still find all the patterns on her blog. (and yes all the 4 patches were made from the scrap basket, black was from the fabric closet!)

I whipped this one up yesterday also inspired by a quilt on her blog!  yes mine is a tad different, what can I say i wanted the cheddar bold center.  Yes I changed the black out this one just worked better with this cheddar fabric.  My plans for this little quilt is to use it at Halloween on a table. (black and cheddar from the closet but the shirting was pieces in the scrap basket)

 Yesterday i was lucky to spend most of the day in the sewing room, sewed together my red and white version of my blue and white quilt...just love them both.    One will probably wind up as a gift.

 Walking into the sewing room today made me smile just seeing whats on my design wall....
yes productive past few days....5 more rows on my crumbler quilt!  can't wait to finish that one and start quilting it...

Last but not least I just had to cut down the red strip to 1/2" I like it so much better now.
I decided  I would just look at it for a day or so and see if it worked nope still bothered me I had to make it smaller.    Here it is with the larger red border if you missed the last post.
the next few days are busy again I hope to at least get this little quilt basted and hand quilting started and maybe a row here and there of the crumbler quilt sewn together.
Hope you have a productive day in the sewing room too, felt good after the busyness of the holidays to just be able to sew and play with fabric and use a little more out of those scrap baskets!
