Testing, testing...

I have been making circles.  Did I tell you, I've been making circles?  Yep, circles!  I knew you'd understand...

This is a test.  There has been no sewing of said circles just yet.  I only placed them this morning.  The Squirrel panel is on my design wall.  I will look at it for a few days before I commit to these circles.  What do you think...  Opinions and suggestions welcome!  ; )
Keep safe everyone!  We are united by threads and have spun a community that cares for one another.  Take a few stitches when you can and be soothed by them.

Piecefully, Pam

Lolly Pop Trees Started

I finished two blocks of my Lolly Pop Trees Quilt.
I believe the hardest  part for me is choosing the fabrics for each piece.
I spend more time shuffling fabric around trying to decide which one to use.





A lot of the fabrics are not available anymore and being mostly left brained - once I see one in the quilt its hard for me to substitute.

Those aqua leaves at the top of this block are bothering me.  What do you think?

My Hearts and Flowers Quilt

I bought the Quilt Romance book because I was bound I was going to make the pickle dish quilt that is on the cover.  I didn't even flip through the book because I was in a hurry, and after all it's a Kaffe book. Even if you never make a single quilt from his books, the photos are inspirational enough to warrant owning the book.  Imagine my surprise when I sat down to look at the book and found a Kim McLean pattern.  I couldn't stop looking at the Hearts and Flowers quilt.  Then I found your group and decided to start the quilt and join in.

I know I should have pulled all of the fabrics first, but I couldn't decide on what to do for the heart.....

So I jumped to Border 3 and started applequeing the hearts and leaves.  I'm trying to narrow down choices for the heart before I go much farther.  I may need to regroup, go shopping or both.
