Inspiration finally strikes

It is not as though I don't have any projects to work on, I just have not been inspired lately.  I go up to the second story and just mess around moving things from one work space to another. 

Lately I worked on wonky stars

I have also worked on these lovely antique blocks, which I took apart, trimmed and am now sewing back together.  I believe the block is the Exquisite block.  The fabrics are mostly feed sack, including the white, and is very loosely woven.  I believe the red and white stripe may be rayon. 


My newest inspiration is making blocks using half-square triangles.  I couldn't make just one.  Most of the triangles are from scraps from previous projects and friends.  I saw this block on quiltdivajulie.blogspot.com and she is calling it Vivacious.  I have researched for a block name and cannot find one, so Vivacious it is.
