Design Wall Monday

I've been working on the scrap quilting club's yearlong project as I need to stay a step ahead of the group to coordinate the project.  I finally got all 16 geese blocks made and then made the next 9 blocks needed for the next steps.  For my light patches on the second set of blocks, I made my blocks like our ancestors.  I had pieces left over from cutting frames from strips.  I didn't want to waste them so I sewed them together like I've seen in quilts of old.


I did work on March's project too and almost have the top completed.  These are the blocks but this is not the setting and I don't have updated photo yet.  I made 115 blocks, 10 half blocks, and cut some sashing.  I have all 10 rows pieced but only 6 sewn together.  More on this project later.

  3. I had to come and see the FG in the Thumbnail was so colorful. I have a Challenge to make with Flying geese due to be finished by mother's day this year. I really like the scrappiness of your FG.
