A New Block

Turbo found this block on Pinterest and we kind of thought it would be a good one for our next projects.

I have three main categories of fabric that I'm using these days: Kaffe Collective, Brights (including Pat's and Marilyn's scraps), and a group I think of as "Edgy." Sometimes the Brights play well with the Kaffes; that's what I've been doing lately.

So it seemed like it was time for a change and I did some math and picked out some fabrics from the Edgy group and made the first block, forgetting that math isn't my strong suit. I should have made a test block out of scrappy fabric.

As Turbo says, I'm close. I'll cut those white squares a quarter-inch larger for the next attempt.

Meanwhile, I'm thinking it won't be impossible to take this apart and salvage at least five of the units. I might even be able to remake the offending corner blocks, but I'm not sure. As I said, math isn't my strength.
