more oakshott



So, yes! I finished that little flying geese piece I posted yesterday...
But, I couldn't stop... I did some more playing after that, as that is what usually happens!

I cut up the fabrics I had left over and thought, now what shall I set them in? 
Next to my table I had my vintage fabrics and I had an idea! How sweet would it look to use the dusty blue with white squares, as a setting fabric around the colorful OAKSHOTT Fabrics?

I only started with fat 1/8" of Oakshott, so I had to make a little go a long way... 

Good thing I like scraps!
I used up my scraps and put this little top together....

The vintage yardage I had been saving for years, has finally found it's home.
Now time to quilt.  
(and yes, I made both pieces in one day... I was having a lot of fun!)
If I had hd more, this might have become a king size... 
;-)
