Another Chunky Finish

 Last Sunday, I released another module to my Scrap Mixology series.

I thought today I would share another quilt I made using the Chunky block.




For this quilt, I used a fun striped fabric for the small strip on each block and then grouped together four of the blocks in similar colors.

I love the color block effect it made!



These are fun to quilt - I just did a squircle (a square into a circle) on each block. I really like the backing fabric on this quilt - I had purchased this print years ago.


The first quilt I shared for this pattern was on-point.  But I did a straight layout on this.  The Chunky block is fast and easy but it sure makes some fun, colorful quilts.

You can find the Chunky pattern in both my Etsy shop and in my Payhip Store.



Same block - just a few changes....

I really like how you grouped the colors together in this version, and the strip secondary print pulls it all together beautifully!

Pretty colors in this one - I love the striped sashing! Perfect backing, too. You really have a great knack for taking simple blocks and making a variety of wonderful layouts!

Me too, I love the striped fabric. It's a fun quilt but that fabric makes it even more fun. This block design would be nice as an I Spy quilt too. Great job with the quilting too. It's the perfect design for these blocks. Congrats, Cynthia! ;^)

That stripe almost makes it look like they are buttonhole-stitched together. Very interesting block!

Fantastic blocks, Cynthia. Since Kaffe makes such gorgeous fabrics it is a great design to let the fabric shine. Just a bit of twist and the blocks seem to happily dance. I would too if I was wearing such happy and bright colors!

Love how the stripes look like big stitches holding the blocks together.

You are so creative! What wonderful quilts you've made with such a simple block.
