I couldn't back up far enough to get in ALL of the blocks in the photograph, but I'm now finished the 25 blocks for my Pick & Choose quilt. On to the borders and sashing!

I've had a terrific day - - sewing, reading, a nap! Jealous??? hehehe

  4. I am loving this quilt! I have the magazine with pattern, and I may just be tempted to try it. Was it difficult? Oh by the way, just for the record...you deserved this "perfect day"

  5. what border are you thinking of doing? I finally started my version, a smaller block and added solids in the background. should be an older look b/c I am using fabrics from the 60-70's. Now that I have it all cut out, should go quick. cw

  6. That is a really cool quilt! Wow, seems like you finished it pretty fast too. Nothing like procrastination from studying to inspire one to work on a quilt, right? I'll have to check and see if I can find that magazine. I think I've already bought it. Mine would probably have all Amy Butler and Heather Bailey prints in it though. Wouldn't that look different!

  7. That is such a great quilt! Crafty Girls Anna, I do think Amy Butler prints would make a completely different looking quilt. One of the joys of quilting is taking a pattern and seeing what comes out depending upon our fabrics and block orientation. Happy stitching!
