10.5 inch finished blocks
Made with 4 inch squares, 4 inch unfinished QSTs and 4 inch unfinished HSTs.
20 blocks are finished for a small comfort quilt in a 4 x 5 layout that will finish at 42 x 52.5.
Someone sent me an inspiration photo they said was found on Pinterest. I still had some 4 inch squares left after making the Hollow Nine Patch blocks I blogged about yesterday so decided I would also make this with 4 inch squares following the inspiration photo (no pattern) to make blocks.
I later used Google Lens to track down further info about the photo and found it pinned on Pinterest and the maker on Instagram. I'm not on Instagram but could see enough info about the quilt to see that a Finnish lady has a pattern for it called "Busy Quilt" if you are interested. I'm not sure what size her blocks are or what size squares, etc. she used to make her quilt.
And now I have another complete block set ready for the SAR (Some Assembly Required) bin to be assembled at a future date. This month I have just been scrap processing when I have a few moments.
I am thinking I might have enough squares and scraps for two other larger comfort quilts - one with blacks and whites and another with browns and creams.
Going where the scraps take me and enjoying the journey!
And sew on...

Pinwheels, squares, bowties... it's really pretty and so many fabrics to look at. 😍
This is another pattern I can add to my list of baby quilts for the Anges de bébé (Baby's Angel) quilts. I thought the second photo was your quilt already done. Lol. Enjoy! ;^)
Oh how sweet and look at those fun fabrics.
I love how this looks!!!!!
Oh my Cathy - this is looking awesome already. I'm excited about seeing the final result!!
What a great variety of fun fabrics you have in this set. Interting block. I checked at yesterday's post when I saw the Snoopy square with the parachute. I recently used that fabric in a pieced backing for a baby quilt made with a Snoopy panel. We went from temps in the 90's and upper 80's to 69F today. It was so refreshing and helped me cool down the house, which has been 89F inside for the last two days. Ugh.

Following your blog is like a mini instagram visit for me. When I go to instagram it could lead me down into a squirrel cave. Great that you are staying productive. Happy sewing.
