This one is from the Summer 2015 Quiltmakers 100 Block magazine. My string bin runneth over, so I am trying to help get the lid back on, LOL
This is the way I planned to lay them out after all the colors are made.
But then my friend Jasmine planted a seed of 'Have you tried laying them out in an X'. Well no I had not, so of course I had to then:-) Now I like them both so maybe someday I will have to make more blocks!
Tropical Punch from Moda Bake Shop caught my eye and so that is my second RSC16 quilt. Two of each color gets made each month.
The original has corner stones, but, I stopped putting them on the blocks after the first 2 blocks. Not sure if I want to put them in the quilt or not. That decision will be made after all the colors are made also.

Very cute and fun blocks that will make for some very colorful quilts at year's end.
ReplyDeleteI love your string blocks, whether placed as X's or O's. Or maybe both? Your Tropical punch is looking great, too! What a fun post!
ReplyDeleteHmmm - the Xs and Os! That's going to be a toughie. It'll be a gorgeous quilt either way.
ReplyDeleteCongrats! on catching up with your RSC projects.
ReplyDeleteI see X's and O's in both layouts. So, I think just add some more blocks and you get the best of both! ��
ReplyDeleteWhat fun and happy quilts they will be, no matter which layout you choose. I'm glad I don't have to decide, although I do like Allenquilts idea of using both.
ReplyDeleteWhat happens if you alternate the x's and o's?
ReplyDeleteI love your blocks, no matter how you put them together.
You could always combine blocks and make an OXO quilt, like the game. Lovely bright colours though, and I like your Tropical Punch blocks too.

I agree with comments, you just need to make it a HUGS and kisses quilt - xoxo
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking the same thing as other commenters! I see X's and O's! Fun to have a block that is so versatile! Your aqua and pink blocks are fun together!
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are so fun!
ReplyDeletePretty blocks, lovely colors!
ReplyDeleteI love your blocks. They will make a great quilt however you lay them out. Thanks for sharing with Oh Scrap!
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are pretty and bright. Maybe you could make one color an O block and another color an X block.
ReplyDeleteYou have some great blocks! I am anxious to see them all put together.
