Layer Cake Quilt Along - block 7 & 8

In between working on my pinwheel sampler over the weekend, I worked on getting blocks 7 & 8 done for the layer cake quilt along.

The pinwheel gets lost in block 7 due to my choice of fabric and fabric orientation.  It's a little busy with all the purple swirls.  It will have to do.  I'm running out of fabric.  I think there are 2 more blocks in the quilt along (I'm still two behind) and then I can decide on what kind of block to make to replace the ones that I decided against even making.  So I'm actually 4 blocks behind.


This will make a cute quilt for Amelia.  My goal is to get this one done and the Jelly Roll blocks that I worked on last year done and give her 2 new quilts for Christmas.  I have no excuses.  My jelly roll blocks are done; they just need to be put into quilt top form.  I even have the backing for it!  Once my pinwheels are done, the jelly roll blocks are coming out.  :)

Enjoy your day!

  5. Go girl....I have my Jelly Roll put together, except for borders. Just lazy! I have made copies of a couple of the layer cake patterns...they appealed to me even though I'm not doing the quilt along.

  6. Super cute, Jen. I have always loved that material and these blocks are precious. What a week! It has just been crazy busy. I loved my reading conference though.
