over halfway!


I’ve been working on this 'maple leaf rag' quilt for a few weeks now and thanks to many of you for following along & commenting as I slowly progress. It has been a delightful challenge to use up scraps, strips & leftovers from my stash. I'm not really planning ahead with my strip piecing, just working on one chunk at a time and letting that dictate my choices for the next section. 
Here's a few more in-progress photos from down on the 'design floor' today ...





there's been lots more of this too ...



and I've added in a few old favourites ...



I'm well over halfway now
and there's nothing like that happy feeling when you get so close to those final blocks ...





until next time, Linda

You have some very early Kaffe fabrics there.

That is such a gorgeous design, Linda! I love how you've put those seet colors together and everything just fits together. You're making great progress on this!

This project just keeps getting more and more beautiful. And yes, we are all zooming in on the photos and having Stash Envy/Scrap Bin Envy, because you have a serious treasure trove of gorgeous floral prints to work with!

It is beautiful. Such lovely colors. I've always wanted to make one but would need your scrap bag, too. Gorgeous.
