Those of us gathering for the mini-retreat decided to come together and create a quilt top for Bee Blessed. We decided on a scrappy sampler blocks in blues and greens with white background. I am just delighted with what the ladies created. Want to see?
Such a super array of blues and greens, but they work so very well together. I think so at least. Great variety in block choice too!
I'm going to put the top together with white sashing, blue and green corner stones and then I'll put on borders. I already know one border I want to use that's new in the shop. Can't wait to get cutting!
As you will quickly figure out, there are 13 blocks in total. That makes for a funny shaped quilt. I would love to have a 4 block x 4 block layout. Would anyone else in the MQGI want to send on a blue and green block to be included?
Galway breeze go the best of my churn dash there in the upper left. You can imagine what that corner looks like...very similar to the other three. |
UPDATED: I have volunteers for the three additional blocks we need. Thanks so much, ladies!
Modern Quilters of Ireland, this is going to be absolutely beautiful. Thank you so very much for your effort. What a stunner we will make together!
