Modern Building Blocks



modalissa-quiltpics_15
Modern Building Blocks consists of blocks that
range in size from 6" to 36".
When I was making this quilt I had so much fun
playing with the blocks and their sizes.
I thought I would share some of the
pics I took along the way.

Everything is divisible by 6
so the combinations are endless.
Shown above are some of the 6" blocks lined up by color.

This quilt goes on and on but the end result
is so worth it,
so don't give up if you don't
have all your blocks done.
modalissa-quiltpics_1 Just keep going and going and going. 
 modalissa-quiltpics_1 Yes, it could be a mini or you could just put together some of the 6" blocks and be done.
I am usually a print kind of gal but I enjoyed
working with the bella solids.


Finally the quilt top was done.

  3. This is a super fun project! Yours turned out fabulous! I had thought about solids... but, really trying to use what I have in stash. I hope to start mine in January. Moda did an awesome job of putting this pattern together! I see many different quilts coming from this in the years ahead!
