Good Day, Sunshine!

I took my 

Good Night Moon X-Block Quilt

outside to enjoy the sunny weather 

and take some more photos.

Here is the front of my quilt.

Here is the pieced back of the quilt,

 which did not show yesterday.

For the backing, I used up most of my Goodnight, Moon fabrics, 

and one of the greens I chose for the front.

The center strips is made of extra strips and sashing cut to size for 

making the  foundation for cutting the X-Blocks.

I thought is was fun to show what it looked like

before it turned in the wiggle worm.

Playing With the Fabric Scraps

After making my 

Fat Quarter Cubes Quilt 

I had a lot of 6.5" ends left of various  widths so

I decided to use up the scraps and get ready for my next blog hop project.

I cut the ends down to 1.5" strips to use with my new ...

Baby BasiX Blocks Ruler

I have joined in the fun in the upcoming

X-Block Blog Hop

and I needed to practice making some blocks before I

sew my blog hop project. 

So I sewed the 1.5" strips into sets of three 

and used my

Baby BasiX Ruler

to make Itsy-Bitsy BasiX units ...

... and then sewed them into blocks.

I decided to make coasters with my blocks ...

... sew I sandwiched them with 5" squares of

batting and backing fabric.

Here are my colorful new coasters!

My quilty kitties, Katniss and Maestro, are putting their heads together

and planning our project for the 

X-Block Blog Hop

Looking forward to sewing and sharing!
