I completed this top several years ago. I guess it just needed to cure a while!
The blocks are made of scraps left over from the making of other quilts.
The blue fabric I used for the setting triangles are hand dyed fabrics I won at an auction.
It feels good to have this quilt finished. It's a generous lap size which is my favorite size to make and own.
This is what I'm currently playing with.
Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all
Emily Dickinson
Lovely!
ReplyDeleteHello Maureen! I was so happy to see a post from you.
ReplyDeleteI really like the way you incorporated the hand-dyed fabric to give so much dimension to the background of your fun, scrappy blocks.
Is you current project made with curved seams, or applique? Looks beautiful!
nice scrappy quilts...
ReplyDeleteI love that quilt and that blue is stunning!
ReplyDeleteLove your quilt! Making scrap blocks like that is one of my favourite ways to use up scraps but then the question becomes how to set them so that those blocks can shine. I have enough to make a Christmas quilt but just wasn't happy with where it was headed - this is a great idea.
ReplyDeleteI love that quilt and that blue is stunning!Thanks for the share.

Your 2011 post on Gyleen Fitzgerald's pineapple tool is a HUGE help. I got the book and tool, but her instructions are actually lacking in clarity and the illustrations are sparse. (We're not all engineers, and I struggle with spatial tasks --often missing error blocks until I'm in the midst of quilting. Sigh.) I am saving your post to help me along!

ReplyDeleteHOW I FINALLY JOINED THE ILLUMINATI BROTHERHOOD AFTER MANY FRAUD
ReplyDeleteHELLO everyone, my name is Aileen, I am from Iceland, I am giving my testimony about how I joined the Illuminati brotherhood, I tried to join this organization for many years, I was scammed by some fake agent, I was so depressed that I couldn't feed myself or even pay my bills and family, and I tried to make money in different ways but everything went in vain, I was afraid to contact any Illuminati agent because I had been scammed many times and they ate my hard earned money, one day I came across a post of someone giving his testimony thanking a man named Lord Adams for helping me join the Illuminati brotherhood, then I looked at the man's email and phone number which was written below, I was really scared because I didn't want to lose contact with him again because I had been scammed many times by scammers who ate my 173,000 euros and I left with the money, and then I was so confused that I decided to contact the person whose testimony was given. I called him and communicated with him over the phone. Before he started telling me his story about when he wanted to join, he told me everything I needed to do. Then I decided to call an agent named Lord Adams, who told me everything I needed to do. He did, and I was initiated. To my surprise, I received the benefits of being a new member of the great Illuminati brotherhood. I was so happy that my life had turned around, and it was all thanks to him.
