I haven't decided on borders yet. It depends on the finished size without borders.

Wow Anael, you are on a roll! I can't wait to see the next section.

I finished all GW blocks today. Now I really need to decide on the strips!!

In the meantime I started the first Long Time Gone block.......yes I know, I also started Green Beans & Sweet Tea hahaha. I need to keep myself occupied :D :D

Yeah Anael!! Your really flying through this quilt. Pictures, pictures, pictures. Inquiring eyes want to see. Wow, you really do keep yourself busy.

I am working on an old UFO. My Giant Scrappy Swoon and I am also working of a R/W/B Patriotic quilt for my deployed Son-In-Law. I just need to finish up 2 more blocks and then I can start sashing it.

I can't wait for Teen to get back. I wonder how she is doing on her GTSB's quilt. I bet she is working on her hand work while she is away. I am so craving some more pictures.

The start of Long Time Gone - Jacobs Ladder. I need 2 more small blocks for the large block.

I have to say, not all the blocks from section 7 are from the original Gypsy Wife. I got a bit bored making 3" square in a square blocks so I made a few other ones. And the 7" also is different from the original one (should have been square in a square double bordered but I didn't feel like making that one :D )

Your fabric choices remind me of the artist Mary Englebreit. I love her work.

Wow, Great fabrics. I am loving the look of this Gypsy Wife quilt. I can't wait to see the completed top.

Thanks for taking the time to post photos. I am really enjoying your progress.

Thanks Judith and you're so welcome. It will take a while. I'm working on section 5 and 6 now.

Anael, your Gypsy Wife is coming out so pretty. I just love the "ice cream" colors you are using.
