economy block

I'm probably the last person join this quiltalong, but that's okay...better late than never.

I have loved seeing all the different economy block quilts showing up around the web and instagram.  I also love that I dug deep into my scraps for these blocks and plan to use mostly scraps.  Hopefully I will see a dent.

tutorial found here (or if you want to make a bigger block, search around, I know lots of folks are making them bigger)

  4. haha, no I'm a latecomer to this blockalong as well! I've pulled through my stash to come up with mine as well. I wish it had made more of a dent than it did! Your blocks are looking good.

  5. Loving the cat block. I did get involved in the economy block with mine being about 5.5 inches and I made a small quilt for my friends grand-daughter and had great fun making it as it came together so quickly. Have fun with yours.

  8. I think everyone is either doing the economy block or planning on it. I did one purely because the fabric was shall we say not so great and it was a perfect way to camouflage it :)Yours look great, super cute and bright, will look great when completed :)
