Choose Your Own BlockAlong - Post 2

The cutting directions called for 49 scrappy cornerstones.

To give myself more scrappy options,

I went ahead and decided to prep all 49.

I chain-pieced scrappy sashing strip borders onto all four sides.

(click HERE for last week's post in case you need a refresher)

After pressing, the squares were trimmed to 5"

Here is one of the 5" squares on the design wall.

Here are all but the bottom row laid out on the design wall.

(I should have started out a little bit higher with that top row!)

This detail collage shows four of the cornerstones close up.

Next week I'm planning to share my scrappy sashing segments.

There's a permanent link in my sidebar for this block-along.

Linking up with the others at Live a Colorful Life
