This is a row quilt that one of our Sew What's members, Martha, is givng us the pattern month-by-month. January was snowflakes, February is hearts... you get it. I've finished June but haven't sew it on just yet. I'll post more pics as it progresses.
I started making big squares with Kaffe Fassett fabric, with the idea that it would become a king-sized quilt. But the more squares I made the more "bulls-eye-ish" it looked. So I cut them in half on the diagonal, and rearranged them, but didn't like that either. But my niece loves Kaffe Fassett, so she took the diagonal-cut pieces and I breathed easier because I didn't have to figure out what to do with them.
Then I had some blocks partly pieced and I started hanging them on the design wall and started filling in with smaller blocks and this is what I got. I'm putting the binding on it now.
This is another Primitive Garden wool block. I did a lot of embroidery work on the flowers, but I like it.
More birds... This is a pillow front in wool. I have the back cut out but it's an odd shape so I have to decide if I want to border it with another fabric to fit a standard pillow form, or make an inner pillow case and stuff it to fit this size. Haven't decided yet.
