Sweet Tea

I hve done quite a lot of the Sweet Tea And Green beans blocks now. Although it's intermittent they do start to build up. I'm feeling a bit stymied as I cut out the third flower block but can't find it anywhere. As I've come to the end of a binding stint I might start another block altogether as I know the original one will turn up if I redo it.

Alison Davies: Testament to Perserverance
I have belatedly recognised this as a Kaffe Fassett design I have also made (and love) which too was a test of perserverance thanks to the huge quantity of square in a squares in the sashing. I love the patterned sashing background here.

Laila Karlsmoen: Comfort quilt for a
blue Monday
This is an example of a quilt that makes
me glad the show is not juried. She states
the quilt is not perfect but I think it has lots
of good ideas and is balanced.

Paula Doyle: Where the wild things are
I have been making fussy cut four patch
quilts since 2010 so I was very interested to buy 
her Easy Stacks book when it came out but
haven't managed a single fabric quilt yet but
I do now use her way of joining fabric repeat
layers with a stitches not pins.
