Crazy Ladies Of The Lake Are In The Pink

Ladies of the Lake
10 inch blocks

I use scraps from the 2.5 inch box for the outside HSTs and chunk scraps for the six inch center HST.   I found a bag of some 6.5 HST halves leftover from a basket quilt I made long ago and used some of them for the centers. 

I now have 37 blocks and I like big quilts so have lots more to make. This RSC project will continue into next year. 

That pink/orange block may not make the cut. I'll probably change out the outside HSTs to be red/orange instead of light pink/orange.

    So vibrant - I agree that the lighter one doesn't quite fit in with the others.

    I adore those blocks! If you keep the blue/pink colors (cool) throughout, then a single warm block (that orangey one) might provide a delightful spark when sitting among its friends!

    Super blocks! Loving the contrasts of the hot pink and blues. I can see why you are hesitating about the last block but don't take it apart, just make a couple more in similar colour selections because it works.

    Cathy, you get sooo many quilts done you just dazzle us!!! Besides the ones earmarked for family, do you donate/gift all the others? Or are you stockpiling?

    I like the pink and orange block -maybe if it doesn't belong with these others it could have a quilt of its own...

    All the colors mix so well, even the orange gives nice variety. A bright and cheerful project.
