Christmas Figs Quilt


I am really enjoying making these blocks. As I said they are not hard but there are a lot of pieces and they're big! I am not following the color suggestions in the book which is also adding to the extra time cutting.


This is the latest, the bow tie block. I just love those added green and white polka dots in the background pieces as they are unexpected.


Here is the finished Lily block and I really, really like it! I am also happy with my color selections because I had something else picked out and changed it at the last minute.


I am not sure what happened here. The stems were supposed to be up higher in the corners. As long as they both match it looks like it was intentional!


This is the selection for the next block that has a million half square triangle! Only 11 blocks to go!

  3. I love how you pick out 'holiday' colors. Always looks so festive instead of murky! You've got a gift for it I think.:)
