Chez Moi geese

SmallgeeseI was able to finish the mini quilt using my Chez Moi leftovers. I'm piecing more of the leftovers for the backing (stash busting!!) and will attempt to quilt this myself using a combination of machine and hand quilting. I also finished the Granny Squares sashing, but will wait until the borders are on before sharing a picture. The border fabrics were ordered more than two weeks ago, but seem to be lost in the postal system somewhere. I must have ticked off the Postal Gods, because this is the third time this year I've had a problem with a package. So that leaves me at a kind crossroads - I'm ready to start another project, but also not quite wanting to, because I know I will start a new project Saturday when I take Jo Morton's Peppermint Twist class (can't wait!). So maybe I'll just take care of some chores - do some bindings and things like that. Or I could always make the 4 extra blocks for my Cinnamon Stars sampler....

  1. Oooh, love your mini quilt. I may, just may mind you (not going to admit to it just yet) have been inspired by your granny squares and geese to pick up some bits and pieces of the Chez moi line this weekend.

  5. What a marvelous little quilt! I love how you used so many of the new "retro" fabrics in it. So many people are afraid to cut larger prints into smaller pieces - I think they work wonderfully for this!
