Gretchen's Alpine block - Building Blocks Tuesday


Alpine Block for Gretchen

Just when I didn't think I had any blocks to share for today, I remembered this little beauty that I made for Gretchen a couple of weeks ago before I really set in on the Technicolor Galaxy.

I really liked the colors that Gretchen chose; that grey is Kona Charcoal and it is really lovely!  She also wanted teal and a white with black in the centers.  The blocks she gathered are stunning.  I can't wait to see how she puts them all together.

This is the Alpine Block and was one of the many Bee Hive blocks from last year.  You can find the tutorials HERE on Blossom Heart Quilts.  Alyce is currently doing a Modern HST sampler QAL, which looks like fun.  And she is only 2 blocks in, so there is plenty of time to catch up if you want to join in.

What blocks have you working on this week?  I would love to see.  Link up your fabulous blocks.  You put a lot of hard work into them - show them off!  This free linky will stay open until the first Monday of next month, but I will repost it every Tuesday until a new month starts.

Rules:

1) Please link up only to the page in your blog showing your wonderful blocks, not just the blog homepage.  Flickr and Instagram pictures are also OK.
2) Make sure to put your blog name as the description so people know where they are going or the name of your block!
3) Please grab my button and post it in your blog post or sidebar.
4) Visit other linky participants!

Thanks for reading,

Jen
