I finished Postage Stamp Sept. 30 and had made so many blocks it was enough for two quilts! Just showing the first one done as #2 didn't show up in the pics today as the battery died right after the pic was taken so it didn't make it in time.

Windy City was my first disaster! Will never do another "on point" quilt until I learn how to handle bias' better. Love the pattern. I couldn't readjust the color on the pic. The beige blocks are actually pure white and shows the colors pretty. The inner border of green is much lighter color. Everything else looks that bright. Hope you enjoy these two laps!

Both are great - the Windy City makes me feel like I'm in a summer garden.

They both look great. The postage stamp one gives me an idea for my 16-patch blocks.

Oh, what a nice feeling that brings! Thank you Marjpf! Guess my love for the garden and flowers is coming out in this quilt.
