OK, I'm back in the saddle again. I will finish this quilt top (though quilting it may be another matter), for I have another very special project waiting in the wings. The four-patch is one of my favorite blocks to make. Very simple, attention to detail makes it look spectacular, putting it on point gives it a great look and feel.
 
I could make four patches all the day long. I especially like getting them all pressed nicely and creating the tiniest four patch on the back in order to make it lie flat when quilted.

 
This project was made with a Moda jelly roll, which saved me quite a bit of time not having to cut out 2 inch strips. Gotta love the jelly roll.
 
I've missed my sewing room, it feels good to be back.
