I have not met a Churn dash that I don't like.... yet!!!
I really enjoyed reading all your comments on my All over the Place post - and I truly loved the vibe that came with them. And I would like to add - that... In my Will and final papers I have a list of people for my kids to call if they don't want to deal with my projects, fabrics, and craft stuff...
Who knows where they will be in their stage of lives when I am 120.... but!! I did at least make a list and a diagram of my room as of this moment ;-)
If you remember I found 5 FQ's that I didn't want to put away - and from that - I made 15 Churn Dashes....
15 is an Odd Number... so I might have gone to my trusty plaid bin and got enough to make one more block..... and who Doesn't need plaid in a quilt??? ( Not me!! The more the merrier!!)
The count is now 16 - and
This is where I am now... I am pretty sure I want to sash them - but maybe not - I'll schooch them together on the Design wall for a day and see what I think - It may be fun to just put them together and use one of my other cowboy fabrics for a border.... hmmmm
the Possibilities!!

Can’t go wrong with a churn dash block!! This will be awesome - Sara
ReplyDeleteMy local quilting friends all have an agreement amongst ourselves that we will go clean each other's sewing rooms when we pass. Your post makes me think I should let our boys know that, too! Love your cowboy churn dashes!
ReplyDeleteHow would they look on point? To use all 16 blocks you could cut four in half to use as side setting triangles.
ReplyDelete...oops, my math is wrong. On point: 3,2,3,2,3=13. The three remaining blocks would make 6 side setting triangles. So you'd need to make another churn dash....
ReplyDeleteYup, every stash needs a designated person to care for it!
ReplyDeleteHip Hip Hooray for Churn dashes! Love yours! :)
ReplyDeleteI love churn dash blocks too. Here is a suggestion for 15 blocks: columns of 5 blocks with vertical strips between the 3 rows and a border all around.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, Alycia...never met a churn dash I don't like! This is lovely. Looking forward to seeing what you decide to do with them. Have a great weekend. Thanks for sharing on Monday Musings!
