S quilt

Seth loved the H quilt I made for my mother, and I recalled Wanda Hansen, in showing how she came up with her H pattern based it on Kaffe's S pattern--so, I went back to the beginning.
I love the secondary design of the backgrounds.
Blocks finish 7 1/2 inches.
Background: two rectangles 6 1/2 inches by 2 inches
Print: three rectangles 8 inches by 2 inches, two squares 2 by 2 inches
Need to make a pile more blocks.

I'm not being biased about liking the S block even tho I could make one too...
I like how the blocks look as they are rotated when piecing rows together. Will need to add this to my bucket list...

How funny - I made an "H" doll quilt some time back because my maiden name begins with that letter. My married name begins with S, and I just made sample blocks in two sizes. Thought that it would make a cozy porch quilt. Great minds?!

I've always admired that pattern too. Glad to see a plaid in pic #2. Almost panicked ;)
