Playing with Blocks
Broken Dishes
Broken Dishes blocks are based on this outline pattern.
I am going to try designing a Broken Dishes quilt motif starting with the outline pattern.
What if I place 4 of them with their corners touching and then fill in the corner with a block that has a square in its corner?
It doesn't look like much at the moment. I'll color it in and see what I've got.
What if I arbitrarily color some of the spaces dark olive?
This is starting to look like something.
What if I use a lighter version of the dark olive to create hourglasses in the Broken Dishes blocks?
What if I add a little light purple and create a pinwheel of sorts?
This has got interest and variety.
I'll complete the design with a tan background.
By combining a Broken Dishes block and a block with a square in the corner I have created a new block.
