I thought it only fitting to make my 12th block after the group running the quilt along and I’ve decided to name it ‘SQUARED’. 
A look back:
To see what the other’s have come up with be sure to check out the FLICKR Group!
And here is the ‘official’ last block of the quilt along – Pyramids. This was my very first time using a template and all things considered it came together pretty well. I think if I were going to do enough blocks for an entire quilt or two or three.. with ‘odd’ shapes I would get myself of an Accuquilt Go! Fabric Cutter.
So – here are all the blocks that were taught via the quilt along. But of course I have to be different so…
And here’s a photo of the blocks I have so far – just ONE left (and the sashing)!

I also finished up the 5th block of the quilt along –
Again…I did some minor tweaking – all of the larger squares were supposed to be one color but I wanted to add one other into the quilt so I chose to use two colors.

Still no baby so I whipped up the blocks for this weeks Patchwork Squared Modern Solids Quilt Along right away. I wanted to be sure I got in on the giveaway!
Here’s my 4th block…

Biggest Fan is a simple a block to construct with an extremely dramatic outcome – I really like it!

Well, baby is holding off yet so I was able to get another block completed for the Patchwork Squared Modern Solids Quilt Along.
This one is called ‘Center Aisle’.
The end effect is striking – but boy, that was a lot of little tiny squares!

The first quilt block for the quilt along was left up to us – what inspires us? I’ve decided that I’m going to make the same block – Constellation (minorly tweaked by me – I rotated the four corners of triangles…) – that I used for our orchard’s barn quilt – the second in Columbia County,
And here it is – Block 1 that will also become the center block of the quilt.
I have also managed to narrow down my fabric choices for the quilts to the 6 you can see to the left…or, at least I think I have…
