Default Tumbler

I was about to go on my first quilt retreat and decided to cut a bunch of tumbler blocks to have ready. I know the stack was over 200 pieces. I cut them with my new Accuquilt GO baby out of my stash. Can you believe how many greens I have? And not all of my collection was used LOL After carefully laying them out and being checked by my friends, I still ended up with 3 of the same touching. So the next morning I replaced one. This one is for me for the couch. It is 14 tumblers each way, but another row was added for proper length.

That's a very spring-like top.

Makes me want to do a tumbler quilt. Love those greens. I would have probably replaced one of the three too. Things like that just bug me. My grandma always said, "If you don't correct it now you'll regret it later."

I love your quilt. What size are your tumblers? This is on my list to do. I think they are great.
