I'm working on a new lattice quilt. The challenge is to use the fabrics provided plus a few of your choice.
I marked a grid on the pink fabric and cut square patches from the floral fabric and fused them down onto the grided pink fabric.
Then I did the same for the green fabric; which is hard to see against the brown cardboard.
Now there are a pink and a green lattice window ready to use.

Next I made a grid on the solid black fabric and fused another section of floral patches. When I was about 1/2 done with that I decided to lay the uncut floral next to the black lattice and I liked the effect.
I retrieved the small pink triangles from leftovers from my "Only a Lily" quilt and laid them around the composition.
Thinking that it still needed another element, I cut narrow strips to form three pink lattices in random areas. I thought maybe they may look too bulky.
So I tried laying a mesh at random areas.
I think I like the pink strips best.

Your quilting skills amaze me. Doris
Amazing what you are doing!! You must have patience.
The pink lattice is the best in my opinion. I come back to see it finished.
Wow. Looks wonderful. Very clever idea and looks great.
