Scrappy Trip Along







































I thought I could resist the temptation to start this quilt since I have happily been piecing Hill Farm.  I kept seeing blocks popping up in blogland and knew I was in trouble.  Apparently the block took off on Instagram and before you knew it a Flickr group was formed and blocks were being made from this tutorial from Quiltville.  It's a great stash buster and is made using a really neat sewing trick so I'm hear to tell ya, it's a bit addictive.  I stopped at four blocks this morning because I've got things to do.  Stop by to see Trish, Amy and Rita's blocks and then head over to Flickr.  My oh my is it fun!

Smiles,
