I recently decided to make a quilt inspired by this pillow. I found a tutorial that makes two blocks from two different colors of 14” x 14” squares that look like this:


I played around with some color combos before settling on Kona cotton “wasabi” and “pickle”.




While waiting for fabric to arrive, I pulled out the only solid scraps in my stash to test it out.

I haven’t calculated how many blocks I’ll need, but I’m excited to start a new quilt project.


Thanks for sharing this. I wouldn’t have realized the rounding optical effect of just two blocks if you hadn’t included the blocks along with the color tests. Really cool!
