I just read a blog that had a bunch of pictures from the most recent quiltcon. It gives me a much better idea of what "modern" quilts are really like. Besides the nontraditional piecing, the quilting is very dense and lends a totally different look to the quilts. Thought the boomers discussing modern styles in the last couple of booms would get a kick out of it. https://www.leilagardunia.com/blog/m...-2023-quiltcon

No, instead let's have Cheese just put the extra in with her other block for you. Two blocks in one bag will keep our count at 19 so we don't go nuts.
My baggies are on the way to our fearless leader. I am having trouble shrinking photos down to an appropriate size. My original fabric wasn't 100% cotton so I went with another from my stash. It is very bright and breezy with a texture like seersucker. I hope no one has an issue with it. I had to supplement the 1960's design with a few blue and whites.

I love magnolias too. I'm asking for a cream solid or COC (cream-on-cream) background with matching golds and greens in TOTs (tone-on-tone). I think there's enough variation in the gold and green so it should be doable for everybody. I am asking that no other large prints be used. I want these magnolias to shine!
