I hadn't sewed in 25 years, but got back into quilting a few months ago. This is my second project, I wasn't crazy about the colors in my first quilt. This pattern is "Sunny Days" by Darlene Zimmerman, but I made the blocks 9.5" instead of 6.5" so the fabrics would be seen better (and no tiny triangle squares!). I can't wait to finish it and see it quilted!

This will be 6x6 9" blocks, pieced border

Very pretty colors and I do like them in the bigger size. This is cheerful and bright and is pleasing to the eye. Look forward to seeing this done. Thank you for sharing.
