    Default Falling Charms

    This is my falling charms quilt. I used charm squares for the Morris Tapestry line of fabric. I was told that I couldn't have it go from light to dark, so of course I had to do it.
    It looks a lot better quilted. Will have to take another picture.

    I like the value transition! Please post another picture once it's quilted. Falling Charms is such a great pattern for using up charm squares.

    Who told you that?? What you did was marvelous and terrific and pure genius. I just finished my first one and I want to see how you have yours quilted.

    Foolish person, telling a quilter not to do something. Of course you did it, and did it well, and the quilt looks great.
