Gibbi's Challenge

Here is the pieced top for the Neighborhood Bee Challenge Quilt. We were each given 1/2 yard of the novelty fabric. The challenge was to use that fabric plus three others to make a 36" x 36" quilt. I had the yellow strips left over from one project and the white strips left over from another project. The mottled green came from my stash. Next step will be to construct the back from other coordinating fabrics from my stash, then quilt and bind.

Heart Blocks Using the Curved Piecing Technique







Here are two heart blocks made using the Pieced Cirves "circle" technique. Am using up some extra blue fabric before using the new red heart fabric for the Heart Walk Quilts. I'll have some more blue pillows for my bedroom.....

Blue Circles


Here is my first attempt at making circles using the Pieced Curves SO simple technique. The directions as simple as they appear where daunting to begin...so I just forged ahead and behold it worked!!!!! I am learning this technique in hopes of trying the heart technique so I can make another quilt for the Heart Walk. Will try a few more circles so I get that down pat. Once I feel comfy with that then I will try some hearts....in blue of course and make some pillows for my blue room.
