And you won't be at all surprised to know that
I fell down a rabbit hole this weekend, and started a new project
I've been faffing about having fun sorting my fabrics for the #daylesfordquilt. It's a kind of chose your own adventure type of pattern.
What's not to love? A simple pattern where the fabrics do all the work!
I'm focusing on a minimal colour palette, beginning with a lovely scrappy coupling of peach & blues in gorgeous gradients of colour.
So far I haven't got much further than the initial "fold & squint" part of the planning process.
More to come,
Linda

I ordered that book months ago and the service keeps posting that it is rescheduled. First I was to get it in late September on my birthday, then it was to be October then late October - then November - I need to check and see what it says now as I still haven't gotten it.
Is that centre floral print an AMH one? Colour and fabric choices are looking great.
And a very nice rabbit hole you have fallen into Linda! I see that there are lots of posts around on this book but I wondered if it is mainly hand piecing. Whichever it looks to be a splendid addition to your quilting library!
And here you go again, bring these luscious fabrics together like a boss!:)
Very exciting when special mail arrives. great to see that you were inspired right away. Have a wonderful time.
Very interesting start although I wonder how long the limited colour palette is going to last 🤔
My July order of a quilting book from the States (for which I picked slow-coach sea delivery) was finally delivered this week after NZ Post chucked it on a flight at no extra cost to me as it had been sitting in their depot in Seattle (?) for so long. I hope yours turns up soon!
