Chunky Churn Dash
This morning I checked to see if I have enough Chunky Churn Dash blocks from last year's Rainbow Scrap Challenge to make a flimsy.
RSC2018 - Chunky Churn Dash |
I found the pattern on Bonnie Hunter's blog Quiltville's Quips & Snips. She used alternate quarter-square blocks to set hers, so I perused my stash to see what I had at least 1.25 yds of. (My 7th grade English teacher just rolled over in her grave ... ending with a preposition.)
I'm thinking the dark gray is too dominant. I also think I would like the CCD blocks set on point.
What say you?
I like the dark grey and I like both settings.
ReplyDeleteLooks good to me!!
ReplyDeleteI like the dark gray. Either setting looks good.
ReplyDeleteI like the on point setting better - it features the stars created by the dark grey triangles. If this makes the stars too much of a focal point for you (don't want to overshadow those CCDs) then greys of closer values for the alternate blocks would make the stars less obvious.
ReplyDeleteI, too, like the on point better. I say go for it!
ReplyDeleteOn point and both shades of gray
ReplyDeleteI like the grays fine, but do not like the on point setting. I think you get that on-point look with the alternate block. It’s a great match!
ReplyDeleteCCD is a great block for RSC and scraps in general. The first Block Swappers swap, back in 2005? 06? was for CCD blocks. I set them with hourglass blocks, was flummoxed with how to quilt them, and eventually gave the flimsy away. (I'd know how to quilt them now.) A couple of years later I used homespuns to make CCD blocks in a True Lover's Know setting. That is still my favorite everyday quilt.
