January 13, 2014

The strawberries are resting a bit because I need to catch up on my Hobo quilts. I am making two and need to finish three blocks in each every month. My guild, the Huntington Quilters is doing this BOM for two years. I am doing one in Japanese taupe fabric and the other in bright fun fabric. The book is Hobo Quilts by Debra G. Henninger. The blocks are pieced, appliquéd or paper pieced. Here are the taupe blocks  so far….

Each block represents signs left by hobos riding trains. Here are the bright blocks….

Amazing how different they look!
