Remember my daisy day quilt...
... the one I started way way back *sigh* in May 2015
using Meredithe's templates

It's been one of those WiP's that I've found nice to just pop back & forth on
- I get inspired, I sew, I take a break, I get inspired, I sew, etc.
A great scrappy combination of some of my favourite florals and assorted low volume fabrics
{And I found an amazing tutorial for piecing those y-seams over here}
Well, these blocks are finally making it into a quilt top this week!
More pics soon
Linking up this week with Cynthia for 'oh scrap' here

ReplyDeleteThanks Diann. Nothing like a good scrappy quilt to make one smile!

ReplyDeleteHave fun Linda - these blocks are so cute and the quilt is going to be gorgeous!! (That's a comprehensive tutorial on Y-seams!!)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun project!! I love all the fabrics you are using and the sashing is perfect for adding more pretty prints into the mix.

P.S. There are some quilts that I just wish I'd made -- and this is one of them!
DeleteThank you so much Nancy!
DeleteIt’s turning out to be quite a scrappy traditional style of quilt, which is a nice change!
And I’m enjoying this again now, especially as it’s all going together so well... so far! I think setting the blocks all ‘’on point’ seems to add a bit more interest too!
Forget the housework... the groceries... I’m going to keep sewing today:)
This is so wonderful in those old-fashioned fabrics!!
