It's beautiful...

I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.

I've made a start on mine, and I really like it. It goes together very quickly.  :)

It's going to be the finishing off which will take time...deciding how to quilt it.

A really lovely block.

Not very...(not in the slightest) Autumnal in my colourway.  :)





Sorry the picture's a bit squiffy.

Enjoyed doing this one. Thank you, Iminei.

Very nice!  I reckon that represents the middle of a hot summer.   0_0

I've been thinking that you could also reverse the block ... 

Use the patterned fabric as the background and a crisp white or old black for the interior ... might have a play with that later!

Oh, Ploshkin... :|  I'm blushing now.. thank you.

I'm not a quilter. I'm ok bunging bits of fabric together. I think this is the first time I've tried to quilt a decorative shape/motif onto something.
