I made more of the This way, That way blocks and I think I am almost ready to start pattern writing. Here are the first 4 blocks of 25. My October goal for “A lovely year of finishes” is to finish the This way, That way quilt completed and have the pattern complete, tested and reviewed.
Design Idea
Initial Testing Block Design
I am also in the process of selecting fabric scraps for making a couple of low volume scrappy blocks. I decided to pull out some with color:
Then a second lot with white, black or grey palette:

well! that’s coming along so nicely. Totally do-able by the end of October…. I’ll be waiting…. 😀
I think so too, I can now get the cutting and sewing done in 1 hour per block
I. Love. That. Pattern. You are so creative and clever. I want to have a designing party with you!!!
Next time you are in town I am so up for a day or a weekend :-)….maybe I can make it up to NJ sometime
That pattern is so interesting because color placement changes everything!
Thank you, that is my goal and I was going for a tessellation like block.
Looking great! These blocks are so smart. My eye keeps moving between the X arrows and the plus arrows that point in. Amazing!
Great pull for those low-volume blocks. I need to make a plan for those too!
Thanks :-)….I am liking how they are turning out – you never know right until they are made
Your blocks are looking sew fine, Michelle! I am really impressed with this design. Can’t wait to see more! Hope you don’t mind if I share your blocks, with a link back, on my facebook page at http://facebook.com/sewfreshquilts
Not at all :-). I have it on my pinterest site too, so its not an issue at all
Those quilt blocks look awesome together!
now THAT is creative – I love it!
Thank you 🙂
LOVE your blocks! Wow!

Great blocks!! Love your fabric choices!
Those blocks look great!!
Thank you 🙂
That’s going to turn out great Michelle!!
Such a doable goal for October! Good luck.
The This Way That Way blocks are looking really fantastic!
I can’t wait to see what you’ll do with the Low Volume fabrics too – I’ve been collecting up some low volume stuff this year, but that’s all for some future undecided project.
Thank you. I have two blocks to do for our bee with the low volumes but I love throwing some in, in most projects
Such a great design they are looking fab!! The arrows are a clever way of creating movement 🙂
Thank you, so glad you like them
So behind on reading! I love the This Way That Way quilt blocks – such a fabulous design. Hope to see many more made into a completed quilt.
