Crazy 21-24, Iris, Antique Quilt

Crazy blocks are moving right along . . . 

Block 21 was easy--I like easy :)

Block 22 went together pretty fast. I thought the pieced star might give me trouble. I like the fussy cut floral spray, don't you?

Block 23 was a success, too!

Block 24--this one was really difficult because the strips in the center section didn't line up with the squares in the top row. Everything was off by a fraction and I'm not doing it over. Sigh . . .

Here is this group of four . . .

. . . and here's 1-24. I think I'm going to set them 6 across by 9 down but that may change as I go along. 

Our iris garden is really beautiful this year and we've had some pretty visitors :)

This antique top (c. 1920s) doesn't fit its name--Garden of Eden. In my mind I envision floral fabrics and something "pretty." My kids gave it to me years ago and just the other day I pulled it out of storage to take another look. 

 

Lots of geometrics and plaids and one block with a floral print :)

The lighting is really bad here but I finally started sewing strips together. And I still rearrange blocks as I go along. So what else is new???

That's all for now . . .
