Something light and bright...

Sarah sent me some really pretty fabs for Xmas. Mostly orange and peach and green. I added some of our hand dyed that we did a couple summers ago and tada! A wallhanging is born. The orange matches my walls in the bathroom just perfectly. Thank you, Sarah! The pattern was on the cover of a magazine- in reds and blues. I don't like the way they had you set up that hst inner border- looks off kilter to me, but that was how the pattern was and I actually followed it. Won't next time. But the whole thing went together very smoothly. I like how they had measurements for everything- that can be a problem with round robin quilts. This quilt is a real cheery-upper in the bathroom. I like how the on point blocks match my tin wainscoting.

Julia has me all in lather for the string quilts. My sis is here this week and she has been helping me- marking diagonal lines down the middle of my telephone pages. And then she sliced my strips into skinnier pieces. Slave labor is a good thing!
