Pat Sloan's I Love To Make Quilts

In the Summer Time FREE Block #5, what's your flavor?

 

Times have changed and we have so many more choices...

Block #5 'Ice-Cream Love!' because we all have our favorite flavors.  

Do you like softserve better than scoops? Sherbet better than ice-cream? How about a Popsicle at the beach.. oh yes.. it's Ice-Cream time! 

I believe in the power of auditioning before I sew a block.

I saw the 2 pineapples together and thought they would be darling in the center. After I laid these out I found the 2 of them in the middle very distracting!

I switched to one gold in the middle

MUCH better!

One of the results of my fabric placement is that I'm creating a few extra Half square triangle units.

I'm ok with that. I think I'll do a Bonus table runner with them at the end, there is plenty of fabric.. do you think that would be fun?

Be sure to check out the full block layout at the end of the pattern, if you are doing that the extras can go into that project.

In the Summer Time FREE Block #4, what do you think it is?

Article continues below these Amazon Goodies

I love the block theme day!!...

Block #4 is 'Meet me at the Drive In!' .. NOTHING says Summer Time like going to the drive in to the movies!  I really hope you share your Drive in memories .. well.. maybe not the 'racy ones' during a date.... wink!  

Do you still have a drive in near by? there is one near my Mother-in-law, maybe I need to see what's playing this summer on my next trip there!

This is the point where I now have a few blocks and I can start looking at color placement since I've also got the layout. I will add in a few of the dark pink and the awesome gold in the next blocks but not one that sits right under the flower. It's all about the balance of colors now
