I'm slowly working on my Orca Bay Myster Quilt by Bonnie Hunter. I finally have 224 oversized hour glass blocks pieced, but I have yet to trim them down to 2.5" square.
In the mean time at our Graber Reunion I helped put the finishing stitches into Heidi's quilt.
I love, love, love this "fresh modern quilt" ... and the little girl in front of it!
I love your black and whites. The whites have great movement and Heidi's quilt is lovely. : )
ReplyDeleteJulia I'm enjoying making this mystery quilt so much! Just think there will be over l00 quilts out there in the www just like ours. I do like the Modern quilt of Heidi's. Did you piece that one?
ReplyDeleteCongrats on getting the QSTs sewn. The trimming can be done little and often :)
ReplyDeleteI remember my grandmother having quilting bee days like yours pictured. I wish there were hand quilters here to do this with. :)
ReplyDeleteYour blocks are beautiful, and the quilt is gorgeous, the little girl is pretty adorable, too.
ReplyDeleteLovely quilt! I do not envy you needing to trim your little blocks. Trimming up blocks is not my favourite step.
ReplyDeleteI really like the look of your modern quilt and all of your hour glass blocks look perfect! Great color choice.
