Winding New Ways

With snow on the ground and the end of the year fast approaching, I think I can be excused for taking a little mental stroll down memory lane.  Especially because this year with the publication of Tile Quilt Revival has been so eventful and memorable.  So...today I was thinking about a block that Bobbi and I designed for Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks from Today's Top Designers, which was on the newsstands at the beginning of 2010.  

The block is a simple modification of the traditional Winding Ways block.  We called it Winding New Ways--what else?  It makes up beautifully in a tile quilt.  Here is a small quilt that Bobbi made with the block:



Her choice of a polka dot for the background fabric is such a happy one.  It just adds to all the wonderful movement of curves.  

Happy strolling.
