    Very nice work! I love the shades of brown. Color choices just make the quilt shine.

    Entirely machine pieced. No applique. I cut the pieces with the accuquilt and machine sewed them, without pinning. There was great video on YouTube that shows how to do that. I practiced on 2 to 3 and they were ok, however, by time I got the 5th or 6th practice one...I had it down to a science. I am really excited about making another one for a baby with pink colored centers and white all around.

    I used the GO die. They make a finished 7" block and I set it on point. Just sew slowly around the curve and it is a done deal. There is a video on YouTube on how to sew this without pins.....practice on some scraps first and you will get the hang of it quickly. Thanks
