Made in Cherry Qal at P&B

Chelsea from Pins & Bobbins has started cutting her fabric for the quiltalong Made in Cherry.
I'm not going to do any cutting yet as I'll be using charm packs: Martha Negley's Autumn Medley.
Not fitting for the time of year, because yesterday in a copse nearby it was spring. This morning everything was white and the grass made a noise when you stepped on it like it was cracking.
But by the time I'm finished with this one it'll be autumn ...
Here's my fabric:
I have not yet decided on the background.

Dorothy took a different approach, sensible even! She's made the quilt using 1" squares and it looks lovely. Take a look here.

Today veryberryhandmade a great giveaway will start. She hasn't posted any real details yet, but it sounds very promising. Hop on over.

Now I have to feed Angus (the dog) and take him out for a walk.
I must have lost some weight by now!!

  6. Super autumny! I think charm squares sounds a lot easier than cutting 1 inch strips though; she must be very patient! Good luck with it!
