I wonder how these blocks would look in a larger size, how about 8" finished?
The pieces in the 8" blocks are made with strips from the 2-1/2" box.
Then I sewed 2 6" finished blocks with autumn fabrics.
I didn't intend to start a new project, now I've started 3!

Hey. This is just what I need to start with. I have some batiks that will be easy to do Easy Breezy. Hugs
HAHAHA... those little blocks are addicted. I've been working on them for a while and have a bunch... probably not as many as you yet as I had another easy block to make for a swap. Both are coming along nicely. I like that you stuck with one color to begin with. I think mine are going to be hard to pull together with all sorts of different colors. Maybe more than 1 quilt like you've planned?
LOL I started this year off determined not to start anything I couldn't finish this year but I keep finding more quilts I want to make! I will look forward to seeing your progress on these 3 projects. You might tempt me to join in. So far, I am resisting. LOL
I like the Easy Breezy blocks, too - have just made a few in the 6 inch size. Fun to see yours!
I have yet to join in on one of hers but I might look into it this time. Looks fun!
Bonnie's quilts always have so many pieces! I haven't done many and I don't know why because a lot of my quilts have many pieces!
great minds - I blogged mine today too. Are you going scrappy or rainbowy?
Hi Gretchen! HAHA - no plans for a new project and now you've got three. I have to say . . . you may just be passing on a squirrel project to a few more friends. Those blocks look tempting, and I do have a fairly full scrap box of pieces that are just the right size. Hmm. No. I don't need another project right now. No. No. No. HAHAHAHA! You know I'll be thinking about this post all day. Thanks for linking up today. ~smile~ Roseanne
I sewed more blue blocks today! The 8" finished blocks were stuck in the 2-1/2" strips box for later. The autumn blocks are on a tray with more pieces prepped but they have to wait their turn. I'm sewing the blues now!
I pulled all the blue and yellow strings from the 2" strip box. There might be a rainbow quilt later but for now I'm sewing blues.
After piecing Dear Jane and Nearly Insane, 12 pieces in a 6" finished block doesn't really seem like a lot. I'm able to chain stitch, I think they sew up fast.
These blocks sew fast, there's no HST's. I'm enjoying myself anyway.
This pattern is very easy to make. I can see several quilts in the future from this pattern.
SQUIRREL!
Whoops! Those darned "What If's" will get you every time!!! :o))
Definitely a squirrel!
That's the way it goes when you find a fun quick pattern. Loved your fabrics. These will be lovely quilts. Thanks for sharing on Wednesday Wait Loss
