Look at these happy, scrappy blocks! Just seeing them up on my design wall makes me feel good all over, like sunshine on a winter day.
I'm sewing the Feathering quilt by Giucy Giuce. This is in the Bundles of Inspiration magazine from the December Quilty Box. I'm making a slightly scrappier version, instead of using all cool tones like Giucy did.
To make my quilt, I'm using the entire charm pack of Quantum fabrics, plus a few light fabrics, and one green fabric that coordinates from my stash.
Here you can see more of the gorgeous jewel tones I'm working with. I love these colors! I didn't want them to languish on a shelf somewhere. They begged to be sewn into a glorious quilt right away.
This pattern works really well with 5" charms. It calls for making half square triangles with 5" squares, then trimming them to 4-1/2". Here are some of the blocks that I still need to trim.
These are the blocks that I've trimmed so far. This is going to be cute! I'll post an update when I find time to work on this again. Not today ~ Yesterday I sewed the binding on my Getaway blog hop quilt. Today, I'll be sewing the sleeve and label. My day for the hop is coming up on Monday.
