They're all pretty close in color and value.
Just enough of a scrap for the 3-1/2" center square.
A plaid sample from years ago when I worked for a sewing notions company.
Background fabric with a soft sheen finish.
A Sturbridge Village repro.
Crossroads is finally done! I started quilting it in January and sewed the label on Monday. My time to quilt is (almost) every night between 7:00 and 8:00.
A close-up.
I did 1" chevrons in the stars and straight line quilting in the sashing.
Scotch Brand masking tape helped keep my lines straight.
The back. A bargain at the local quilt shop--30% off if you finish the bolt, which I did when I bought 4-1/2 yds.
A detail. Love these birds!
The label. The binding is Antique Fair by Moda.
I love this time of year. Here are some pics of what's blooming in our yard :)
Wisteria
Mayapples
Bluebells
Lily of the Valley
Columbines
Happy Wednesday!
