Well I missed out on
WIP Wednesday update though I had lots done on my Bounce project so I though
I'd share my progress today (pattern Miss Rosie's Quilt Co.). It's not
finished but I'm motoring along!
As it's Good
Friday today and Easter Sunday is rapidly approaching, the colours in this
project are so spring-like they remind me of Cadbury's mini chocolate eggs that
come out every Easter. No actual chocolate
until Sunday but I can have a visual feast
in the meantime.
All 28 squares were laid out in 4
columns by 7 rows on top of a beautiful quilt I didn't make but inspired this
one for Gordon's Auntie Maura. Layout
photographed, now onto the next steps of assembly and borders over the weekend. This project is really coming together now
and I love it.
If Wilbur the
lunatic Basset can contain himself and be on his best behaviour for a crust of
toast from my mum, I can certainly be just as good and wait for chocolate mini eggs!
I love your colours- as you said very spring like. Now if only spring would hurry up and pay us a visit!!!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean - coldest Easter I can remember. Seems strange to have daffodils and snow!
ReplyDeleteI like your Bounce quilt, lovely colours
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, such pretty colours. I want to use similar in my first proper quilt I just can't choose which fabrics to use!

Thanks everybody for the commenting! The fabric is Coquette by Chez Moi for Moda cut into 2 1/2" squares. They look really great together in a scrappy look. Each star uses the equivalent of a 3/4 of a Layer Cake. I have 28 stars so tons left over the scrappy border in the Bounce pattern. Layer Cakes are the business!
