Tumbling??

No I’m not  tumble down all the way..even though I’ve felt a bit topsy turvy lately,

And I so so desperately needed a new project –yep good I can hear you all agreeing…

I have admired many different tumbling block quilts over the years, however I have never  even thought about a making  tumbling block quilt, well snap light bulb moment. Just give it ago..happy dance happening –everything worked out just right…

One tumbling block assembled, I decided to just use 3 fabrics for my first go..

And then I made more and more (click on photo for a larger view)..I am loving this design and lots of other fabric ideas are springing to mind..

Cheers Vickie

Thanks for stopping by.

It looks great Vickie, though I worry that some of the animals are going to fall out of the car! Tracee xx

YAY!
I love tumbling blocks too, and they're definitely on my 'must do before I die' list.
I love your fabric selection, really works well and shows off the print fabric as well as the block piecing.
