AFter receiving that gorgeous table runner from Laura for my birthday, I caught the quilting bug again. I took a trip down to Joann's because they were having what I thought was a pretty good quilt fabric sale (turned out it was only a little bit of the fabrics on sale, but it saved me a couple bucks I guess). Then I visited my local quilt store to add a few more.
For a pattern, I picked the Crossroads Quilt from the Moda Bake Shop, which uses precuts. I can't afford precuts, so I put together the patterns on my own. I had 1/2 yard cut of each one. I have no idea if that will be enough! LOL
Here's what I ended up with:
And I've made the first few blocks. Please don't laugh, they are FAR from perfect!
17 more to go!
Well done you! They look totally spiffing :-)
ReplyDeleteThey look great! Much better than my first few quilt blocks looked. I really like that quilt pattern, too... can't wait to see the finished product! :)
ReplyDeleteThose look lovely! I really admire quilters -- I have yet to develop the patience and skills for all that ironing and sewing! :)
ReplyDeletethere is an awful lot of ironing and sewing.. i'll give ya that. lol
ReplyDeleteThe fabrics work so well together, that central floral print is so fun looking.
