Patty makes a Pine Burr Block

Patty made this block; inspired by a quilt at the Bold Expressions:  African American Quilts from the Collection of Corrine Riley.  Patty had trouble finding directions.  If anyone has a reference send it on.  Sounds like she's not up for a whole quilt, although it would use a ton of her scraps.

Can this quilt be saved?

It just doesn't work.  Men's shirts, stash solids, and splash of Judy Robertson  fabric.






Lots better.  Still not "drop dead beautiful, but fun and will work.  Strips made of two Kaffe fabrics, one piece of thrift market yardage, and one plaid table cloth.  

Quilt now 61"x77".  Restructured by Buffy and Nifty.
