Desperate House Wife Quilt Block - Spots & Stripes

I have made a block for Jane's

Desperate House Wife Quilt

each week a different blogger participates by designing/ making an 8" block

and here we have mine


The Spots & Stripes Block

I wanted to use some graphic fabric, with bright colours

3 inch squares cut in half on the diagonal to make half square triangles

placed into a zig zag pattern

& framed with a 1.5 inch strip

all sewn together with a 1/4 inch seam

all of the fabrics are available at
Bea Spoke Quilts Fabric Shop


Thanks to Jane for a chance to be part of the Desperate House Wife Quilt
