Posies Quilt

The finished Buggy Barn quilt top - Fun to make. Two women created this method of construction, where you stack ten fat quarters of fabric, and cut them out according to a pattern. Then you shuffle some of the colors, so that you use up all of the pieces, but create vastly different blocks. This technique is so much fun to do, because you don't have to worry so much about matching points, etc. Loved doing this quilt. The bottom three blocks are possibilities for a child's quilt. What a nice way to use up some fabrics I didn't know what to do with. The accent is on frogs, bugs, but no puppy dog's tails. Be sure to enlarge the pictures

Very cute! Looks like it would be fun to do with rewarding results. But have you finished all of your other quilts that you have had on your blog this winter?

What a fun project. Love the idea of not having to fuss about every piece.

Finish? Does that word go with quilting? Probably not - but the time is coming - for sure.
