I have been making GFG blocks. I never thought I would like English paper piecing but I LOVE it! It is so relaxing. And this is the quilt I have started:
What to name it????? Granny's Irish Jig? Grandmother's Irish Chain? I wasn't sure about the grey background fabric. I ordered it from Green Fairy Quilts. It is a Moda solid. It looked like a softer grey on the computer but it has a touch of brown to it. I was really disappointed when I got it, but it has grown on me and I like it now.
I have this on the longarm now. It is my take on Edyta Sitar's Tree of Life Quilt. I had to try Deb Tucker's migrating geese for the border.
Well, you can't see the trees but they are there plus a Oak ring block in the triangles. Will get better pictures when it is finished.
Have a GREAT LABOR DAY!!!

Deb's Posies
This quilt has taken me much too long -- with weather and life, in general getting in the way. But I really like how it turned out. Hope Deb does, too!
Our guild had a batik exchange and this is how Deb used her batiks. Now she is giving it away to a childhood friend! Lucky lady receiving this!
