Country Fences

Today is April 30 and the calendar block for today is Country Fences. It is a 5 x 5 grid and works out to a 15" block. Here it is in a 12" size by Diane L. She said that she wanted it to fit with her other 12" calendar blocks that she's made from my calendar and so she engaged in some serious quilter's math!

I think she did an awesome job! The fat quarter collection she's been working with this past year is Grounded by Windham Fabrics. They were designed by Maria Carluccio.

I used this Country Fences block in a digital quilt designed for my 2010 Block a Day Calendar. This is my Trumpet Flower quilt.

Trumpet Flower Quilt: 57" x 72" (blocks are 15")

Isn't this a lovely alternate block to those appliquéd trumpet flowers?
