Today sewed lots of 2" X 6" bricks together, to start making the scrappy sections of the blocks.
First I sewed 2 bricks together, then 2 sets of two bricks together. Next, I sewed 2 sets of 4 bricks together. So now the sections contained 8 bricks each. Then I added one more set of 4 bricks to that, to make a section that has 12 2" X 6" bricks in a long row. The next step I did was trim a little of each side so that it now measured 4.5" X 18.5" Still need tons more of these sections, so I will continue to sew more of these together in between assembling blocks.

WOW I just read about you....I have 6 kids, 9 grandchildren and my favorite quilts are scrappy. I also make quilts for kids in the north who live in poverty. So similar to you.
I'll definitely be back to visit. Hugs
Thanks Scrappy quilter, I thought the same thing when I found your blog! We actually have several more very special things in common, :) We both love Jesus, are saved by grace, and share the belief that the Bible is our most loved book!
I'll enjoy your company, and will also stop by your place, so keep the coffee or tea on!
