    Since folks seem to be enjoying scrappy tops, here's another one.....lots of scrappy tops!

    When I got these scrappy blocks made and looked for my sashing fabric, I was so glad I had this gray stripe :)

    I love the fabric choices you have made for sashing in all your quilts. I like pieced sashing, but it takes so much time. I'm going to start looking for interesting prints specifically for this purpose.
    Love it!!

    Thanks! I love a pieced sashing but, as you said, it does take some time! I use a lot of stripes in my sashings, and I use them in either direction. I've used some floral stripes and I like those as well.

    I surely wouldn't have thought to use that fabric for the sashing but it sure does work! =)

    Another beautiful quilt!! So I have to ask....how many quilts do you make in a month, or a year, or a week?! All of your quilts are amazing and beautiful! Thanks so much for posting them. I am really enjoying looking at them :) You have a great talent!

    Thanks! I do love that fabric and have had it in several colors, which I've used for sashings....if I remember...hot pink, blue, lime green...I think that's all.

    I usually takes me anywhere from three to seven days to make a quilt top. Normally (not counting days like the last two when I've been playing on the Quilter's Board) I'm in my sewing room about ten hours a day.

    thanks for the very supportive comments!
