Quilt-A-Longs Part 1

It all started with the antique quilt just like this one.

Cheddar Cheese & Crackers

Then Strawberry Fields.

And Midnight Stars.

Here's the fabrics I chose for the block our next quiltalong.

Here's the two pinks I used for the background. They turned out a bit similar once the top was all together. See the different pink used in the antique? There is just a little bit of it, but it adds a bit of a surprise.

Here is my rendition.

Some of you may already picked your fabric. For the blocks get into your scrap bin because it won't take much, that's for sure!!

I kept the colorway the same as the original. The whole blocks- 2 brown, 2 navy, 2 red. The half blocks and quarter blocks all brown.

We will start with the whole blocks. You will need approximately;

Print: 1- 2 1/2" x 8" strip for each whole block

Background/Pink: 1 fat quarter will be plenty or enough background to make a fat quarter.

I'll be back with cutting instructions next.

I need to get my sample quilted. Now that BTCT borders are done that is next on my list.

PS If you have a great idea for a name I'd love to hear it!!
