When a friend mailed me a big box of fabrics culled from her stash, some of the purple strips seemed perfect for some violet blocks.These are 5-inch blocks. Curiously it's not one of the six sizes included in the pattern I created for the Block Lotto a few years ago ... I see an updated pattern in my future.
I plan to use these for a sewing machine cover for my purple Bernina.
I'm playing a little catch-up after picking up a bug at the quilt retreat and will be late joining the parties for Scrap-Happy Weekend and Design Wall Monday.
You can find the pattern at the top of my Free Quilt Block Patterns page.

Reminded again how much I like these blocks. Might have to make some again. Just not in 3"... :)
Oh these are such sweet blocks - and they remind me that I have some like them somewhere done in oranges. Need to unearth them -- happy stitching!
I love these blocks Sophie, they are really effective. I remember when we made some for the lotto a few years back. Your Bernina will be very comfy!
What a nice quilt... My daughter loves violets so I can see one of those in my future
Spring has sprung! Love your sweet violets.
They look just lovely in that size and perfect for the fabric color.
They look like violas or violets using purple. V pretty.
