What's on the design wall

Here is what is on my design wall-at least for a few more days. I had some free time and decided to bring out my featherweight for some mindless sewing. 

These began as string strips. 

Next I let my 12" Accuquilt cube companion set do the cutting of this shape. After I get a bunch I will add triangles to the two corners. No rhyme or reason as to the strips I use, it's grab and sew. 

When I tired of that I finished up this little quilt.  It's about 40" square. I used the kite shape from 12" Accuquilt cube. The blocks were all pieced in December and assembled recently. 

I was happy to find just the right size and color fabric for the backing.  This makes donation quilt # three finished for this year.

Kite blocks

 Yesterday I took a break from the pineapple blocks and started something new. These kite blocks are made using the 12" cube from Accuquilt.  Each kite makes a six inch block and when you put four together it makes a twelve inch block. This makes a fast quilt. 

The die has the dog ears cut off which makes for very accurate sewing.

After picking the background of navy(which photographed as black) with multi colored dots I chose the kite colors.  Shape 14 and 15 from the Companion Angles twelve inch cube make up these blocks.
