Might do some straight line cross-hatch quilting on a donation quilt today or add a binding to another. We shall see!
The chandelier quilt blocks are about half finished. I now understand why so many quilts using this pattern showed up in photos a short while back. Easy and fast and good way to show off focus fabric. Chain piecing makes it a breeze.
I need to find just a few additional fabrics to expand the quilt to a larger size without so many repeats of fabric. I used a layer cake from Maywood, Lavender Sachet. Lovely but many repeats of the same fabric in the layer cake. Like, 3 or 4 per fabric. It was a gift, so I am just going to add a couple of coordinating solids to provide more variety.
Never touched the quilting projects. Tomorrow is another day!
