I haven’t met Susan in the ‘real’ world, but I have always admired her from afar. She is super talented and spunky. I think that’s my favorite part. She isn’t afraid of speaking her mind, sharing her talent and adding a little bit of color punch- just because.
I knew asking her to participate would pay off — and it did, in color! I love the simplicity of the quilt block that she has chosen and the bold colors that she inspires us to use.
Her tag line for her blog– where sophistication and mischief collide is right up my alley. Thanks Susan for sharing your spunky block with us!
Boxy Pinwheel Quilt Block
What she says about her block:
I remember when I made one of my first quilts and how I loved the ease of piecing long strips of fabric together to create a design. It makes creating a quilt seem not so daunting. This particular block uses that same method; piecing strips of fabric together; cutting the pieced strips; arranging them to my liking
This is part of the Round Robin Quilt Along Series–– for previous blocks and for theschedule of designers.clickety click here.
