Wonky Churn Dash

All I needed to finish my Wonky Churn Dash quilt was a couple of orange blocks, and the colour for the month of September for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge is orange.
 


Now they are done and I quickly cut the sashing out of all the bits of colour used in the blocks, as well as some corners out of a black print.
 

I played around with different layouts, and think I have settle on one that will work.
 

I took a few pictures and now this quilt top is packaged up and ready to be sewn together at an upcoming quilting weekend.  I’ll work from my photos, and with feedback from my quilting friends make any changes necessary.  Do you see any block/sashing that could be in a better place?

Once I’ve got the top together I’ll be looking for just the right fabric for a border, in my mind I see a black print with just a touch of rainbow colours in it.

  2. What an AWESOME idea for sashing a scrappy quilt!! I've used that method on a T-shirt quilt, but never considered it on a "regular" quilt. FUN!!!

  6. That's going to be such a fun, happy quilt! I really like the wonky churn dashes. Did you make two kind of "opposite" blocks in each color?

  7. Love the orange wonky churn dash blocks! I like the idea of multi-colored sashing; might have to give that a try myself.
