I think bloggers who don't post for ages are lame, and I plead guilty as charged. It's been ages since I posted anything. But! Tonight's the night...
I've started a new quilt for little Rory, who lives in London and is about 1 year old. Every little boy loves dinosaurs, right? And when I found this amazing fabric at eQuilter, I decided it was just the thing for Rory's quilt.
So, I made a start, and here are the first two blocks:
And I got inspired, and made all the star points, put together the first 12 blocks, and have the remaining 8 laid out, ready to sew together:
And just to give you another little taste, here is a close-up of 6 of the blocks -- can you tell I LOVE these?
Still working out the setting, but I'm thinking a simple horizontal setting, with 2" sashing, maybe in a wild print, with a contrasting color for settings squares. And then either a triple border using some of the star point fabric, or maybe I'll find another print I like.
So that's the news from me. Is this the start of blogging for me again? Not promising anything...
