First block


I just couldn't wait to get going on

the new quilt. I cut fabric today while we painted and sewed while my daughter helped DH to shovel the walk (because we got another huge dump of snow). So here's block #1. It's not been pressed, but I'm very excited about it. I'm not sure if I have enough of the black pattern to make all of the setting blocks. (see post below) I can't decide if I should just do as many as I can and then switch to black, or if I should do all setting blocks solid black. Help?

Thanks Belinda. Yes it is some ME, and I got it on major sale so it's even better :)

That ME fabric is so great! You can get some more from Jane from her Ebay store for $5.60 (on sale until 24 Jan).
