First Reproduction Quilt

What happened to the Summer, where have I Been?


My goodness how time flies! It seems like just last week that I took a fantastic 2 day class with Sally Collins. But it was clear back on July 13 & 14. If you ever get a chance to have a class with Sally, be sure to grab it. She is wonderful. Whatever projects I've worked on since the class I find myself remembering a tip or technique or a story that she told.

The project we did was the Circle of Stars. I did a couple of tiny nine-patch quilts a few years ago but they are pale compared to the pretty little stars that Sally taught us. Maybe I have a photo to share here if I can remember how to do this. OK, that is it above. In the upper left corner you can see my layout of one quarter of the block, but with those Magic Mirrors you get the whole preview. That Was Fun!

My project is still under construction but it is coming along, a little at a time. Like many other quilters I know, there are several projects under way at the same time in my sewing room. And then there are the ones down at the shop! So I have lots to write about here, and obviously need to get back in practice, especially with putting in photos.

I can hardly wait to share the progress of my Jack's Chain and a new/old log cabin variation project that I found in an old magazine.
