The products featured in this post were given to me by Island Batik.
This month our Island Batik Ambassador challenge is Whimsical and Wonky. I knew just what I wanted to make. One of the quilts that I have given away and miss the most is the Improv Tumbler Mini that I made for the 2017 MQG swap. This month I'll be making a larger scale Improv Tumbler quilt with my Bright Paisley Dot 10" squares.
These tumbler block units were cut with a rotary cutter without the use of a straight edge or template. I started by slicing the 10" square roughly in half, so they are all about 5" tall, but then I just chopped those strips up. I'm looking forward to getting this lovely rainbow pile up onto the design wall.
Stay tuned!

The Paisley Dot 10" squares are bright and fun and I look forward to seeing how the tumbling block quilt comes together for you!

Post authorThanks, Yvonne! I've gotten some of them up on the design wall, but I'm sharing the space with my son's current project so I need to take over that space to finish laying out my tumblers. ;-)

Looks like it will be quite fun! Those layer cakes are quite fun - but I am sure yours will have that added twist.

Post authorThank you, Kathleen. The 10" stack is a lovely rainbow of color. I'm working on a color wash layout.
