The moment that I laid out the blocks to sew the top together, I knew it was love.
The flying geese are Center City by Jay McCarroll with Kona Iron and Kona Pale Flesh - it might initially look white, but it's not. I love that subtlety.
I did not finish this mini quilt, however, because I think it's destined to become a great quilt. I'm even considering making it big enough to go on our bed. This little mini is going to be so much more than mini! I'm sad that I currently have too many other quilty commitments to just work on this straight away! But, I will make it. It's begging to be grand.

The first thing I thought when I looked at your pictures was "too bad it's a mini -- this would look so good in a full-sized quilt"! I hope you share pictures when you get the time to enlarge it -- I love the way it's turning out so far!
ReplyDeletei think you're right . .it would look great on a bed!
ReplyDeleteI, too, think it would look great in a full-size quilt. I love the pattern! And I really love your blue skies and tree in bloom!
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful so far! Love the crazy print with the soft solids.
ReplyDeleteit will look fantastic as a bed quilt
ReplyDeleteThis is really cute, but I have to say that the color name "pale flesh" is sort of grossing me out. Ew. :)
ReplyDeleteI love the colors and fabrics you chose. I love it. I am doing poorly with my blocks and mini quilts. I have only printed the patterns :-(
ReplyDeleteLove that layout! Beautiful mini and will be a gorgeous full size quilt.
ReplyDeleteStunning!
ReplyDeleteThat is just a great idea!
ReplyDeleteGo for it!
That is super lovely!!
ReplyDeleteVery Cool. I would love to see it bigger as well.
ReplyDeleteCurious to know how you'll quilt it. I've got flying geese boarders on a quilt I'm doing now and I'm stuck for ideas, can you help?
