So this is an LJ R7 quilt because, as you (I) go down the columns assembling the blocks I say to myself, "join an L then a J then another L and another J:
Then the next column is an "r" then a 7 then an r then a 7:
This all works fine until . . .
And it's not just my quits - I've infected Jackie's too!
So tell me what you would call this block then?
If anyone needs me I'll be in my own little world - they know me there!
good to have explained your logic behind this quilt!!! I now understand and no maybe you are not so barmy. When I did my Tula blocks I got muddled as I cut them wonky and twisted them alternately well I thought I did so like you have had to undo and redo some
ReplyDeleteas long as you are happy there xx lol x
ReplyDeleteOh dear, the LJR7 bug is catching!! I think I'd twist myself into all sorts of knots trying to keep those rows right!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Not barmy, just 'special' ;o)
Oh, positively certifiable, but that certainly helps in this game ;o)
ReplyDeleteWell that's alright then. Phew!
ReplyDeleteThis looks great. I love the effect and your LJR7 is a clever way to remember :)
ReplyDeleteI think there are at least two of us in this world!!!
ReplyDeleteI have a book which calls it Pieces of Eight, though the layout is different (so that you make a kind of figure of eight) - like here http://katesquilting.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/brown-green.html - it's more r7 lj down the rows...
ReplyDeleteActually, looking at yours again, I can see it's the same - just didn't strike me that way at first! Anyway, not sure if Pieces of Eight is an official name or just what this particular author called it...
ReplyDeleteI love the name :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful, I llike how the blocks are flowing.
ReplyDeleteI will use thil JL r7 methode in my next quilt!
Thanks for the inspiration!
