Scrappy Saturday - Kitchen Door Quilt Blocks

Since last week's link-up,

the first round of scrappy red strings

were added to the Kitchen Door quilt blocks.

As the next rounds were added,

the blocks were squared to 12.5"

The inner rounds were pulled pretty much at random,

only making sure that there were four different reds

and that there was plenty of textural contrast.

The second round fabrics needed to be different 

than the first four and play nicely with the

outer rounds of the adjacent blocks.

This photo was taken after the blocks in Row 1 

and the blocks in Row 2 were stitched side-to-side.

And then I stopped to do some rearranging.

I rotated several of the blocks

and decided to piece the top in columns.

Here are the first two of the four columns sewn together.

Who knew that painting the kitchen door

last fall would lead to this ?!?!?!
