Welcome back for block 6, "Neighborhood".
I know this is a variation on a block,
but at this writing, I can't find my
notes on which block.
I do know that when I was
done reworking it, it reminded
me of a neighborhood with homes
in the middle and the
protective 'fence' line.
It reminded me of my childhood
when the neighborhood was all I needed!
My first neighborhood memories are
of when I was 4/5 years old in New York.
We lived in military housing.
My friends were there
along with the playground we
spent hours at making up
all sorts of imaginary games.
There were woods surrounding the
housing that we were NOT supposed to
go into....You know how that goes:)
We would sneak in there when the
bushes were full of wild blueberries and
gorge ourselves thinking our parents
would never know. HA
Every child should experience
that at least once:)
Look at that repeat of 4....
I am excited that any
of the blocks in this
quilt make a great quilt
on their own once repeated.
Change the color
and rotate 2 blocks
for inner squares that
point out.
And, please show me pics of
what you do with some of the blocks!
