Your blocks are beautiful, love the colors and details.
Wow gal288 - this is beautiful! And it looks really large! How long has it taken you?
I started it a week before xmas, like I thought I'd get it done! Idea came to me from an xmas card we received.

Anyway, it's 36" long, 18" wide, has not taken long, just simple buttonhole edging.
I used an old blazer I wasn't wearing, felted it and cut bias strips from the back for the stems.

Haven't figured out how I'm going to finish the edges, tongues will be too heavy to hang, it's on my design board and I will figure it out. After all it's only February and I have to November, right?

I'll be happy to participate, and help design our own quilt if everyone wants. All we need to do is select a theme everyone is interested in, and decide on a size.

I love designing and would rather spend my money on more fabric than purchasing a pattern!!

How does everyone feel about that?
:lol:
