I didn't want to waste the background fabric, so I used setting triangles instead of squares.
These blocks are so fun to make, and a good way to use a variety of fabrics. I wanted to make a queen size quilt out of these, but then the blocks got put away and I didn't get around to making any more.
When we got a new nightstand, I decided these would make a great table topper. All I had to do was make one more block, and I'd be able to enjoy them right away!
Another bonus, was this made for a good small project to practice free motion quilting. I tried stippling for the first time. Up close the quilting isn't great, but it has a very nice overall effect, so I'm quite pleased with it.
And now I have a happy night stand!
