Goldilocks and the Three Pickles

Poor Goldilocks.  What a time she's had with these pickles!

The first pickle was too small...


and the second pickle was too big...


But she kept trying and trying, and at last she found a pickle that was just right...


Here's the whole gang of pickle dishes -


(that's going to make for a lop-sided quilt...)

And here's what it would look like if I really were crazy enough to make a pickle-in-a-pickle-in-a-pickle...
 

That's pretty silly, even for me...

    You did a great job with your redrafted patterns, glad you ended up with a size you were happy with. It's a fun scrappy block, but takes a bit of time. Thanks for sharing with 'sew stitch snap SHARE'

    You are in a pickle. I love watching people work out blocks. This is one I mean to try myself sometime. So many ways to use fabrics with it.

    I actually like the pickle in a pickle in a pickle, but just enough for a small wallhanging and not a whole quilt.

    Need I say I LOVE Pickle in a Pickle in a Pickle? Can't believe you made three pickles that would fit perfectly together.

    But any old Pickle is good too. Pickles rule!

    What a pickle you're in trying to get it just right. You have much more patience than I do for these types of projects. I love the idea of a pickle in a pickle in a pickle. Happy sewing!

    I can't tell you how impressed I am that you redrafted the first pattern and made more points -- and now I guess you redrafted that pattern, too? I like all of them but I especially like the middle size. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with these. You always make such fun, bright, creative quilts!
