Hello and welcome to my blog, where I keep track of quilt project progress and finished projects.
I have been immersed this week in a new project - the Cups and Saucers pattern, done up in vintage fabric and feedsacks, and Kona Snow fabric for the background. I now have about 15 blocks done. Here they are laid out on the floor of my sewing room:
I know I want to put sashing between the blocks. I am still undecided on whether it will be 1 inch or 2 inches wide, finished.
The blocks finish at 12 inches square. I am aiming for a 5 by 6 block setting so I am about halfway done.

I am using this pattern:

And this link for the flying geese units:

Remember a scant 1/4 inch seam allowance, or the geese blocks will be a touch too small.

What a delightful quilt these blocks will make! Best of luck making the additional blocks you need to finish the project.
Lovely blocks. I believe that in those days, they preferred wider sashing to one inch. Whatever you decide it will be a stunning quilt. Enjoy! ;^)
I am loving this block design. I might have to make this a future RSC block. Thanks for sharing with Oh Scrap!
