Blue Old Italian Blocks

There wasn't a lot of time this week to work on my Old Italian blocks in blue for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge, but I did manage to double the number of finished blocks. I'm up to an even dozen!

Old Italian blocks, 3" finished size

I also cut pieces for more blocks from the rest of my blue 30's fabrics. It was surprising how many different blue fabrics I had in that box, probably another 20 or so blocks in blue. I'm keeping the pieces next to my machine to use as leaders and enders.

I got the instructions for these blocks at Barbara Black's blogpost HERE. She also includes directions for 5" and 6" blocks.

Be sure to check out all of the wonderful scrappy projects at the Rainbow Scrap Challenge every Saturday and Oh Scrap! over at Quilting is more fun than Housework on Sunday. 


Happy quilting everyone!
