I am so delighted with my scraps from Lisa! So many new fabrics but also some I already have, love dearly, and can never get too much of! The top picture is some of the strips that I sewed together; the bottom picture is the new energized form of the same strips after I slashed and reassembled them. I feel like the block may be a medallion for a quilt someday. In the meantime I love to look at it and will just enjoy seeing it daily. Thanks Lisa and thanks Victoria!!!

I love these blocks, my favourite fabrics too!
love your blocks
Beautiful fabrics. Beautiful blocks.
I love your new block. Can you share how you cut the original so it all fit back together so well?
Great blocks! So bright and happy.
Just gorgeous!
Loving that top block especially!!
Gorgeous colors, lovely made-fabric. Look forward to seeing how this develops.
To answer Irene's question, I made a couple of cuts parallel to the sides, reassembled, cut a diagonal wedge, reassembled, made two more parallel to the sides cuts and reassembled again.
Thanks Willa. I have been going crazy trying to deconstruct this block. I need to try this ASAP.
Willa, you are a master at constructing beautiful blocks from made fabric, it's a great result.
Beautiful! I sometimes forget how cool it looks when one slashes. Gotta remember to do that, too.
I loved the first block until I saw the slashed and restitched block, which is even neater!
