Autumn Understands & Is Grateful
After Autumn got over her shock I tried to explain just how her quilt would look if we left it as it was.
I'm not sure why I couldn't visualize this until after she left last Monday. But, duh. It finally soaked into my brain that this just isn't what we want. I called her dear Mom, Barbara to see what we should do, and that's when we decided to pick it all apart.
Now, yesterday Autumn & I sewed all the blocks back together adding the black in a checkerboard fashion.
And if you think that's not enough, Autumn is making this quilt to give away to one of her best friends! She is so kind and generous!

Autumn Returns
First we laid out all the blocks.
Then I helped ...
... her sew them together.
Autumn is so fun and it's such a delight to have her around.

Autumn Makes the Twister Quilt
My niece Autumn was here this past weekend. I helped her start making the "Twister" quilt for one of her friends.
I'm looking forward to her return next weekend to continue with the project.

Half Square Triangles
This is a "Mystery Quilt" so I'm just having to guess at what it's going to look like.

"What Mean These Stones?"
I read that if you want to work in a series you should have at least 3 works in the series. So I made a 3rd quilt using the Silly BooDilly's Non-Pattern Pattern. And thanks to each of you for your input on giving them a name. Here they are starting with my most recent.

Unnamed I & II
Amy over at Amy's Creative Side is hosting another Spring Quilt Festival. Here's my Unnamed contribution.
I've been following a blog by Silly BooDilly and I enjoyed her "Non-Pattern" Pattern: A Creative Exercise in Quilt Construction where I got the inspiration to try making something artsy. Now I need a name for the two pieces. They are small, around 18" wide. What are your suggestions?
