Block 1, Kansas Star - piecing instructions posted!
This is a 12-inch block that uses a total of nine diamond-in-a-square blocks. My current plan is for a 13-block sampler. At the end, I will make 12 Irish chain blocks for a quilt of about 72 inches.

New and continuing projects: Block Heads 2 and Red & White Quilt
Even though I haven't posted here lately (I've mostly been on Instagram @elvycrafts), I have been fairly consistent with sitting down at the sewing machine.
After I finished the Medallion Quilt, I wanted to find a filler project that I could work on here and there, so I started the Moda Block Heads 2 quilt-along. This was back in October, and I was quite a ways behind. However, as of a couple of weeks ago, I'm all caught up (except this past Wednesday's block), AND I even began piecing together some of the blocks:
This past month, I also received the first of the year-long Mystery Sampler block-of-the-month by Fig Tree. The collection for this BOM is Farmhouse II. These are the blocks from January:
And, after several starts and stops, I decided to take a new tack on my Red & White Sampler Quilt. Here is the first block, just finished today:
I will post more info on this project later this weekend!
