Design Wall Monday 5/12/14

My design wall has a little bit of this and that on it today. To the right are my LeMoyne Stars for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge in green, our color for May. That brings my total number of LeMoyne blocks up to around 40 of the 6" blocks and 3 or 4 of the 12" blocks--maybe it's time to check out all the colors together up on the wall one of these days.

On the lower left is my newest project, bowtie blocks for a Quilt of Valor. Bowties have become my favorite leader & ender project. They are so easy to cut and to stitch, but there are all sorts of fun layouts for the blocks. Last year I made 4" bowties for the border of this quilt top, and earlier this year I made a baby quilt out of 5" bowties. This time around the blocks will finish at 6", the same size as those little LeMoyne Stars.

I am linking up to Design Wall Monday at Patchwork Times where you can see all sorts of quilting inspiration!
