But none of these had a lot of &quot;zing&quot; to them and thought a variety of&nbsp;reds would put some spice to the blocks and lend some consistency to the overall look. Also for consistency, I chose one background of white/tan checks to help tie it all together.&nbsp; Although I only made 20 blocks, it was still amazing how fast and easy the blocks were.&nbsp; I&#39;ll definitely be making more of these Old Kentucky Album quilts, especially when I need a quilt in a hurry!</p>
