Spencer Museum Quilt


Just finished the first Spencer Museum quilt block (Jan Patek quilt pattern). The berries are tiny and have so much fabric gathered behind them that they look stuffed, which I really like! Rainy day here so its a perfect time to stay inside and applique. Hopes and thoughts go out to those living in such tragic circumstances in Haiti. Sent our donation to Doctors Without Borders last Wednesday for the relief effort - they do such worthwhile work.

Oh Dixie - this is lovely! I started basting my second block today. I am trying some different colors on this one. We'll see.

Oh Dixie - I just LOVE it!!! I know you will have the most gorgeous quilt when you are finished. It will be so fun to watch it come together.

Still trying to catch my breath (and put the kitchen back together) I should be ready for the treadle challenge in a few weeks . . . hang in there with me *S*
