RATS.


I ran out of fabric...
rats.

I blended some other similar fabrics into this...
Not sure I wan to keep doing that, but i will keep playing with scraps until I get
a bit more solids to finish this.
I love it!


So instead, I worked on this:


And a little of this..

And decided I want to make this one into a whole quilt.
I love the colors.

It makes me smile like this scrappy happy quilt.

Why not have another!

And the Pixie Dust has it's borders on!
It looks amazing.

I'm going to applique a few things in the borders... to jazz it up.
Then it's off to be quilted!

(it's a funky gray dark day, not a good bright picture day!)

    wow these are fun - good job with the pixie gather! I ADORE your 3 flower quilts. They are so cheerful and beautiful. Can't wait to see what the middle one looks like as a larger quilt.

    Use more solids indeed. I love it, so now I will have to try something like it. I am amazed at the Pixie Dust in its almost final form. The gathering of different styles makes for a really great quilt when skillfully combined. You have succeeded at the combining skillfully part. It looks great.

    Are you wavy piecing the solids? Is it hard? It looks amazing!!!

    LOVE the bit of appliqué in the corner of the pixie dust quilt.
