january half over and already a finish....i am on a mission!
a small piece about 28" square but i love it! found the inspiration from this book by betsy chutchian...
this is the 2nd project i've done from this book and quite sure there will be more to come....if you are a repro lover, you gotta get this one. *** and a finish means an open slot for something new....
from a recent 'quiltmania' this tantalizing quilt designed by france aubert....i love the blues/pinks but had some tuscan-inspired prints waiting to be used so will cross the border into italy for this one. and it, too, will be smaller than pictured. have opted for 9 blocks rather than the 16 for two reasons....1) the 16-block is a funky size, not quite bed size but bigger than wall and 2) not enough tuscan-feel prints on hand and don't want to buy more. *** i may cave for some of this tho....
not available until early summer but pretty tempting. *** then there is this possible in my future...
That quilty plate has a sneaky way of refilling itself too, doesn't it? You have some pretty nice ideas for the future; I just love those plans that you're making. Congrats on a finish! Well done, it's lovely!
ReplyDeleteA lovely finish, Grace. And the new project looks like a challenge--and you're up to it!

DeleteA mission indeed! What a fabulous quilt! I love medallions and these colors are gorgeous. I am anxiously waiting for Betsy's "Mary Ann's Gift" 5" charm squares. They were supposed to ship in October! And not there is a new one coming just after that one. I just have to learn patience!
ReplyDeleteooh that is a nice line...some lovely paisleys and yellows...
Deletethanks..it DID come out nice...maybe cyndi will have the new stuff when i visit in april...

ReplyDeleteI like the sound and look of the second project and those fabrics would be beautiful for making it blue......I have the book (need to find it) and would love to make that quilt.....
Looks tempting that range of fabrics, go for it! Gotta keep the 'dance card' full.

ReplyDeleteA beautiful little finish. And the next new project with the Tuscan feel is really going to be stunning!
ReplyDeleteThat is a lovely new line of fabric coming soon. Looks like a perfect match for the book.
I love your little civil war quilt.
