Small Quilt #2

Here is the second pattern we received in February for Jo Morton's small quilt club.  Last month's quilt I did in pink and browns. This time I went with navy and mustard. They're not my usual color choices, but I'm happy with how it turned out.

23''x18'' finished


Next month I'll have to get back on track with posting history of the American Civil War along with them.  I did watch 'Gone With the Wind' while piecing this though.

All fabrics are Jo Morton's (for Andover) Civil War reproductions.

You have fingers in many pies, this is so well done! The colors are perfect for history, We see alot of that here in NEw England, especially that mustard yellow.
You are a woman of expanding talents, you go girl! xox Corrine

I love the colors! Very colonial - I also love the photo transfer pieces you did. Wish I lived near Portland! I'm also following your fabric journal - you've inspired me to try and embroider a face:) Have a wonderful week.

nice sharp points, mine are always round. I think it has to do with me never being able to make heads or tails out of patterns. I'm a "wing it" kind of girl! got you letter, will write back soon.

Good morning. I like your fabric book idea, I'm not sure though that my projects would be tidy enough to fit into such a nice book.
Best wishes for all your projects.

Wonderful! And a perfect match to watch Gone With the Wind while making it!
