What I'm up to...

Here it is, Wednesday. I've been working on my center block for Love Entwined. I've finished the paper piecing.

The flash washed out some of the color, but you can get the general idea. I'm trying to decide on a color for the center star.

Other than that, I've been working on a memory quilt for a customer. Can't show that yet, too many pieces.

I'm linking up with Esther's blog, please head over there to see what everyone's working on.

One more time

It's funny, you know. You start to do something, like a blog, and you're gung ho. Then life interferes, times change, and  the blog falls by the wayside.

I'm going to try again. I've got a reason. I'm taking part in an 18 month block of the month. Her quilt is totally  out of this world! It's called Love Entwined, a 1790 Marriage Coverlet. It's part applique and part piecing. Here's her blog: http://estheraliu.blogspot.com.au/. Go check it out. Here's a pic of the quilt. Isn't it fantastic?
Right now, I'm planning on making the whole thing from my stash.

Have a great weekend!
