For my Rainbow Scrap Challenge this year - I made Chunky Churn Dashes ( Pattern found at Quiltville.com) And I Really had fun digging thru scraps for it - One of the pieces is only 1 1/2 x 2 1/2 inches - so I Was able to really use the small ones too!!
I know that October is Neutrals and November is Dark ( I think) So I skipped ahead and used my Whites and Blacks to make the hourglass blocks.
But then I had it on the design wall - and I just couldn't stop!!
Ta da!!! And of course - the girls!! they wanted in on the challenge. They might have been the reason I couldn't stop - their waggy tails sometimes rearrange my Design wall - and I had the colors just the way I wanted them to be....
I had to keep going right????
I also made this one back in March ( maybe)

I like the b/w hourglass alternate blocks….they really show off the colors. And of course you had to sew them together before any dog re-arrangement happened!
ReplyDeleteLove your Rainbow Chunky Churn Dashes and the girls are very cute posing for the camera.
ReplyDeleteThat is an awesome rainbow quilt. I especially like how those hourglass pieces set off the blocks. And it's dog approved!!
ReplyDeleteChunky Churndash is one of the first blocks I made for the BlockSwappers. It's so simple and so effective! Your rainbow version is great.
ReplyDeleteWhat a striking quilt - so pretty. And the photo with the pups is just priceless!
ReplyDeleteWOW, Alycia -- I can see why you couldn't stop working on this one once you got your groove going. It's so visually striking! I LOVE how the black and white sets off your rainbow blocks, and your furbabies are just as sweet as ever. Congrats on another gorgeous quilt finish!
ReplyDeleteOh, that is gorgeous, Alycia! I love how the hourglass blocks frame the churn dashes and the rainbow layout, too. Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteThe chunkies are just adorable!
ReplyDeleteLove those rainbow chunky churn dash blocks in your finished flimsy! Those girls have so much personality! I can see their thoughts. . .really Mom? Again? It is such a nice day, please can we have a run?

ReplyDeleteCongrats on a very fun and colorful quilt top. The girls are looking good. They way the are posing makes me think of all the boy band album covers from the 60's and 70's. Have a great weekend.
