I made 6 versions of the 2024 Block of the Month. Each one has different fabric and layouts. At the last minute – Sept 2nd and I needed the quilt by Sept 9th – I decided to do one more simply with sashing and cornerstones. I was on track until it came time for the sashing. Nothing was working and I didn’t want to buy more fabric. The blocks were put back in the project box and I went on my way.
This week I pulled out the blocks with the intention of finishing the quilt. The deep teal was purchased for another quilt and I didn’t use it. I threw it upon the design wall and put the blocks up on it. It was perfect. The border cornerstones are a design element born of necessity – I couldn’t figure out how to turn the corner with the print.
