STUD Swap Finish

Sunflower Days




















This pic is pretty mediocre, but I love this little quilt I sent to Sunflowerquilts. Can you see they're sunflowers? 

I took a cue from Malka Dubrosky's Fresh Quilting with a kind of improv log cabin block. My partner and I agreed to use only from our stash, since we're both in StashPact11. I've fallen in love with yellow and grey, so I got out all my yellows, with a few orange scraps, and the grey. I didn't worry about how big each one was, just sewed them all together.

I hope it goes in Sunflowerquilt's home--it looks on her blog as if she has quite a bit of black furniture . . .

I have a few more yellow blocks that I plan to sash with a medium grey for ME.

  • More sunshine . . .although yesterday was 50 (!) and today started out at 8. March.
  • All the purples and grays for my son's graduation quilt are collected.
  • A night off--no meetings, etc. Yay

I like that quilt! I really think the black pulls it all together. Great job! She is lucky to have you for her partner.
