I've been making more blocks using Sujata's rail fence design
And as promised, here's a few progress photos
My main focus was to try & combine my Anna Maria Horner fabrics with anything & everything!
There's certainly been a bit of trial & error happening here in the sewing room
I started out with a couple of 'safe' combinations, using AMH loominous...

Ha-ha, is it just me or do these next three blocks kinda look like

hm-m-m, not too sure if this is actually going to work or not!
Here's the first 12 blocks...
The results are quite unpredictable
and there was one block that I just couldn't cope with - can you guess which one?

After a bit of unpicking, here's all 20 blocks...
Yep I agree, it is a bit colourful!
And a fusion of sorts I guess, the old with the new, plaids with prints
Finished quilt top size - it's big - 2m x 1.75m!

I love this, it looks retro to me! Just up my alley :) it's such a super pattern, and your colour combos are really invigorating!! Love it!! Love, love, love it!!
Beautiful! I love your fabrics and your combinations, especially the big plaids!
Wow - very cool - amazing how they all go together isn't it, well done!!
Very original and striking! Thanks for sharing!
Looks really good Linda. :)
Love that echinacea flower block. It has all come together quite nicely - and blocks that looked a n=bit strange by themselves have worked in well.
Lovely mix of prints Linda! I love the use of plaids!
Thank you! Yes I love that bigger plaid especially! I got a couple of fat 1/4's ages ago at a patchwork meeting. They feel sort of silky and have been very useful.
the quilt top is lovely, I like the plaids very much...need to think on that, maybe my Kaffe needs a bit of plaid
It is beautiful and for sure not too colorful. I love it just the way it is!
