Mid-Century Modern Sampler Quilt Block 10- San Onofre Atomic Energy
From terrible atomic bombs to controversial nuclear energy, atomic power is truly part and parcel of the post war era. Here is the symbol of the United States Atomic Energy Commission (AEC), a widely seen and reproduced icon from that era.
The United States Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) was an agency of the United States government established after World War II by Congress to foster and control the peace time development of atomic science and technology.
The block is much easier to make than it looks. Just 4 hollow ovals and 4 solid circles but very dynamic!

Please do check out my Craftsy Pattern Store where you can purchase immediate downloads of my patterns… and some new free patterns too!
My Early Spring Pattern, above, is now available at my Craftsy Store. Made with just FIVE great fabrics (These are all from Hoffman California Fabrics) to set up a great dynamic. But I must confess, the quilt started out as a swap of ten inch squares, so a layer cake or Cracker (also from Hoffman) would work great too! Make your own version of Early Spring and send me a pic! Thanks!
