Another Chester Criswell Quilt Block

Yesterday I finished the next Chester County Criswell block.






I made James Carlile's block using a single piece of fabric. This fabric is from Barbara Brackman's new line called Metropolitan Fair. I like how the shade of green changes across the fabric.

Here are all my blocks so far.





I plan to make the quilt with a few different background fabrics.

Today I basted and started hand quilting the little pinwheel quilt in my previous post.

  1. I especially love the red block in the lower right corner. It reminds me of a vintage doily.
