At the April retreat, participants put together this simple block.
One of the retreaters suggested I put the blocks together this way so as to not have to match seams. Great idea!
I found this layout boring, so I decided to have some fun with slashing the blocks.
Four of the slashed blocks made this cool design:
Here are all the blocks put together. Note that there is a secondary design.
It now needed something more and it wasn’t wide enough. Back into my bin of donated fabrics to add two side borders.
A Hospice flimsy – yeah! It is now hanging in my “flimsy” closet waiting in line behind the others to be quilted. My goal is to have them all done by the end of summer. Bonus: there are enough blocks left to make a second quilt from these blocks!

I love this flimsy! It’s colours are soothing but it has so much movement to it. 😉
Thank you! It was a satisfying finish.
You can never just keep it easy 😂
Adds to the fun!
I agree, the original block was boring. But your inspired slashing and rearranging has made a fabulous Flimsy. Well done!
Thank you – it was fun!
Very very clever!
Thank you! It was fun.
Joyce, I may do some secondary cutting on the blocks i showed you for the green quilt. The diagonal lines provide more interest, I think. Thank you for the inspiration to do this.
