To be very specific, it's a dark purpley-brown and feels batik-y. As soon as I saw it in the shop I knew it was just the thing. Black would have been too intense.
Thank you for your kind comments TSPers. As I keep mentioning, I had a superb and lovely teacher to help me on the way and couldn't be more grateful to Imi for all her time and encouragement

These quilts are fantastic. It’s lovely to see how different they look with their individual colour schemes. I finished quilting my last block yesterday so hoping I can turn the blocks into a quilt before Christmas.

Sorry
Yes applique label saying Bjay 2020 - bright yellow embroidery on - erm - pale green maybe
just reached squares out of storage box - they don't seem to blend together - may end up being 5 x 3 or may end up being 3 x 4. All because there is one I eally don't like and I haven't anymore green swirly fabric.
i know I'm way behind but I will get there in the end (I think)
Needs :thinking:

Such fun!!
I have an unsuccessful flying geese block with swirly green fabric.
I am now unpicking the triangles in an attempt to construct a new block to my own design.
Very slow, but I will finish quilt at some time

Extra block made with unpicked flying geese from a rubbish block and using the swirly green fabric
I am now an expert in unpicking
I have also run out of batting and will order some in the New Year
