Just look at the colors of this! OMG, when I finished it, I was amazed at the visual cacophony! The first thing I thought of was “It looks like it belongs on a circus elephant.” and so the name.
I took a class from Wendy Mathson for this block, which is called “Storm at Sea”. You can google that title and see zillions of examples of it. It really is amazing the number of ways this can be put together. One of the fun features of this block is that set just straight up, it is pretty. But when you turn it on point, it completely changes and becomes sort of op art like. I just had to set it on point of course. This is just the top. I have not quilted it yet. I am not a very fancy quilter so it won’t look much different when it is complete. On the other hand, I like it simple like this with just the screaming colors to interest you. I hope you like it.
