Quilt Block of the Month #5 is DONE!
For this month’s block I did a little fussy cutting for the center and some of the corner blocks…
I have a small 2 1/2″ square that I used for fussy cutting the circles out… Fussy cutting is simply cutting out a portion of the fabric to feature, in this case I wanted to center the circles in this fabric.
Now I have them all ready to go!
If you’re following along, you know I’m working on block 5 ~ a scrappy Tula Pink version of this quilt…

Here is block 5 in the Kona Cotton version…
The orange against the white fabric is pretty spectacular… Purple is my favorite color but I gotta say I’m a huge fan of orange!
If you want to color in your block with your own fabric choices or colors ~ here is the color sheet to download: block 5 color diagram

I did the stitch in the ditch and straight line quilting first as usual…
And then filled in the center and some of the triangles with pebbles.
Done!

I have been following your beautiful quilt now for a couple of months and sitting on the fence as to whether I will do this. Your QAYG tutorials are so great, it is the only way I quilt, and your work is BEAUTIFUL!!!. I shared a pin for the tutorial on my pinterest board Ode to a Quilt.
