Expect the Unexpected

Now that I’m caught up on my swap blocks, I want to stay that way.  So I sat down over the weekend with this pile of scraps and the theme for the month:  pine trees, but not Christmas trees.

Once again, the block pattern came from EQ6.  Have I mentioned how much I love that program?  With a mosaic technique in mind, I started sewing.  Here’s the finished block.

I may have been thinking mosaic, but I actually sewed stripy.  This is the way the fabric worked best with the pattern.  Rather than try to force something else to happen, I just went with the flow.  The mosaic technique will be used another day in another project.
