it's called the Mini Jacobs Ladder - another tutorial from the Missouri Star Quilt Co - I think things are getting out of hand for me with their tutes..... just sayin'
This uses all 5 inch squares ( again) and there is no waste! Well - I had such fun trying them that I posted it to my Colorado QOV'ers and my group got busy - I think 30 of these 72 blocks were made by me - so I am not really all that impressive - But!!! these blocks were all pieced with 5 inch squares from my never ending bucket - so there is that!!
and just for grins and giggles - check out these clouds - they were wispy along my walk and I loved the color contrast:

A very fun quilt, even more so since you got a little help from your friends.
ReplyDeleteThank you for posting. I have a stack of 5" squares and wondering what to do with them. Carol
ReplyDeleteHmmm - I might need to go check out that tute.
ReplyDeleteGoodness, you're on a roll!
ReplyDeleteLovely and on my list to make.
ReplyDeleteHi Alycia,
ReplyDeleteFive inch square mini-blocks Jacob Ladder. WHAT?! That sounds perfect to me. Hmm, how did I miss that tutorial?! I'm going to go check that out right now. Thanks for the heads up. I think your quilt is beautiful and know that the final recipient will love it. ~smile~ Roseanne
A very lovely scrap quilt!! Makes me want to go dig in my scraps... Or NOT, since I'm already working on your mystery AND Kevin's!! Ugh! SEW many quilts, so little time.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great use of those 5" squares and it flows together nicely for being scrappy!
ReplyDeleteOh! That is a terrific quilt! I love Jacob's Ladder block. And as for the clouds, I think we quilters pay more attention to Nature than any other peeps other than artists.
ReplyDeleteAlways nice to pull from precuts and just start stitching! It's a great block and love the barn raising setting, my favorite.
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this mini Jacob's Ladder quilt, I like it a lot. I looked at the Missouri Star tutorial and it looks so easy - and no waste! I am going to use this.
ReplyDeleteThanks also for linking up with Design Wall Monday. Your post is another example of how we all learn from each other.
So pretty!
