I finished another quilt shop sample, but didn't get a picture. The last shop sample I had here to make was a One Block Wonder out of six horse panels. I tackled that this past week and got it done! It turned out well, although I miscalculated and it's wider and shorter than I had hoped. I wasn't allowing for as much seam allowance in length than it took! I really do know how to add and multiply! The shop owner is going to add a border to it. It turned out to be 51 X 54.

I cut out a new quilt yesterday. I purchased this kit from
Starr Fabrics years and years ago (click for a view of the pattern). There are 30 hand dyed fabrics. It wasn't quite as vibrant as I had hoped and I set it aside. There are also appliques with fusible web that I will not be using at this time. I need a gift for a friend and I think this will be perfect. I am ready to sew the strata together.

Testing my own blog again for comments!
I never would have thought to use panels for a OBW and it worked really well! It’s a beautiful top. I love, love the fabrics you have ready for your next quilt. I’m looking forward to seeing it finished.
I love the OBW. I still have not made one. LOL I cannot wait to see the new quilt. The colors are gorgeous!
That is a very cool One Block Wonder quilt! Can you believe I have never made one?!?!
