Two Mill Girls

It has not been my most creative week.  I completed a lot of mundane tasks at work - pricing, orders, cleaning, a newsletter, class samples - but didn't have much time to either knit or sew.  When I got home from work today, after dinner, I MADE time to sew.  Two and a half hours later, I had two Mill Girls quilt blocks done, another Strippy Flippy Scrappy Happy, bringing that total up to 12 blocks, and a bunch of precut scraps.

How am I just now finding the Mill Girls quilt block?  I saw it a couple weeks ago and haven't been able to get it out of my head.  It is a perfect block for my scrappy style.


Does a quilt block ever speak to you like that, not letting you out of its grip until you make a block or two or twelve?

I'm linking up with Oh Scrap.

Oh, yes, I've been grabbed by a block pattern and carried right away...
I really like this one, too! I'm also a big fan of putting as many different colors and prints into a block as possible.
