I've been playing with ITH quilt blocks with more of my left over jelly roll strips (which seem to be going on forever!)
I always have outline designs ready on my memory stick so one became a potholder and the other a pincushion.
I believe the potholder is called courthouse steps, but I don't know if the other one has a name.
I rather like the courthouse steps block, it seems to have a lot of potential. Who knows I may even do enough blocks for a quilt!

They are both very pretty.
How many pincushions do you have in your gift drawer. Yesterday I counted 17 in mine - time to start doing something else, like potholders, of which I have only 8.

I believe your second block is called square with in a square. Nice use of the blocks.

These both turned out beautifully as does all your work. I am thinking about doing a sports themed quilt for my son's 50th Birthday this year and found the second block in my search. It was called "Economy Quilt Block"

I'm glad your leftover jelly roll is still going strong. I'm enjoying all the uses you are coming up with to use it up. I love these ideas. Well done
