One and one is two.
Two and two is four.
Four times four is sixteen.
That's how I'm sewing the blocks together. And then when they are done, I'm pressing the seams open.
And yes I use pins. Lots and lots and lots and lots of pins. Like I say, if I want something to stay exactly where it is supposed to go, a pin will help make that happen. Since this way of making blocks means a lot of slightly curved seams, and blocks that aren't exactly on the straight of the grain, using pins helps keep everything straight and keeps things from stretching.
The right half of the quilt is all sewn together. Now I am working my way down from the top on the left side.
Each unit finishes out at 4".
This quilt needs a name. Suggestions, anyone?

Since it has so much movement, how about Riding the Rails?
I would say "Derailed", but that's not funny right now. Again.
Lightning strike! That's what it reminds me of. I love the look.
I don't have a name idea, but I come from a part of the country where they do flood irrigation and when you first start filling the rows the water bends and zigzags around the dirt clods like this.
