This week I got out a few novelty fabrics and made a few more random blocks.
But I ALSO found this quilt I made many years ago when I felt like making random blocks. The blocks here were mostly things I found on the internet or modified from the other people’s ideas.
I had forgotten about this one. My thought now is that it doesn’t hang together very well, but I still like the individual blocks and probably will repeat some of them in the current block-making frenzy.

There’s a great modernist vibe to your random-block sampler! Have fun with the new batch.
Thank you, Nann!
A fun challenge in store for you, to make random play well together.
Haha! Sometimes I find that I’ve made more than one quilt because they do not, in fact, play well together!
I think that’s a wonderful random block quilt! It appeals to me very much.
Thanks, Andrea! I miss your blog.
The Ultimate Scrap Quilt! It is awesome for just the name alone 🙂
I guess I thought very well of it at the time I made it–ha!
Oh, I love the older quilt. And look how on trend you are…with white in the background (alluding to the Pantone 2026 Color of the Year debacle). Are you just tucking these blocks away until you get enough? Or just playing in the sewing room?
Saving those random blocks for another fun quilt made of random blocks! Good to hear from you 😀
