No Hourglass Figure Here...Just Lots of Hourglass Blocks

I'm making another Quiltiville mystery quilt this year. Orca Bay is the name of the game. The first step is to make 224 b/w 2.5 inch hourglass blocks. I ended up with 227 that measured correctly and about 20 wonkies. So far this fabric hoarder has not bought any fabric.

It's not too late to join in the fun! Visit the Quiltville blog so you don't miss out.  I made one last year for the first time and it was loads of fun.

I love them, I think the "doo-dads" add lots of character and interest, it's going to be wonderful.

I had forgotten that you had done this... I see some small prints here that would would work for me.. I'd pass on the skulls, music etc but love the tiny flowers, and geometrics...any of those pieces left... Ger
