This is beautiful. Now I don't feel so badly about all the fabric I have hoarded. What is the name of the pattern? Can I find it someplace on the web?
THanks for sharing. Muslin on the back?

i am with you. i am trying not to buy anything new until i use up a good portion of what i have. It is amazing how far the scrap pile will go. Made a full size dresden with just shades of blue i had and even used different color squares of blue for the backing(still have loads of blue left!) Loved the look of the pieced backing - never had done it before, but will definitely do so on the next scrap quilt i am planning.

That is a great looking top! I need to do the same thing with some of the fabrics I've had for a decade or longer.

Just love it! You did a great job with the fabric selection & colors! I too am on a 'fabric diet' this year! It's a year to complete that which I've started and use up what I have!
Blessings,
MaryAnna

I like it! The black and white draws all the other colors together. I'm having fun, tho a bit of a challenge. on the fab mo (fabric moratorium). Can't wait to see all the creations.
