Jacob's Ladder Series-Drawing #4

     The next thing I wanted to try, was to add a third color. You can see that I just played around with putting a navy accent in a couple of places. The blocks in this drawing are the same size as the blocks in the last drawing. There are 12" A and B blocks, and 14" Bear Paw blocks.

Jacob's Ladder Series-Drawing #3

     When I see this drawing, I am reminded that when I was started on working with these drawing, I was asked for a custom quilt in 2 solid colors.Naturally, my mind immediately went to this Jacob's Ladder quilt. Again, I am using 12" A blocks and B blocks in the Jacob's Ladder sections, and 14" Bear Paw blocks. My customer was very interested in the Bear Paw block, so I did a bit of experimenting with combining the two blocks in a composition.

     Jacob's Ladder is a nine patch, and Bear Paw is based on more of a seven patch layout, so they don't fit together very smoothly, mathematically, but you know I had to give it a try anyway.
