BOM Rehab . . . . .

There's nothing like having a Monday BOM Rehab deadline to turn a lazy Sunday afternoon into a productive one.

One focus block done, 


6 more to go!

My strategy of making all the setting blocks was a good one, it made selecting the fabric for this block very easy.


I hadn't noticed until I made this block and put it on my design wall with the setting blocks how the two sets of blocks work together so nicely.

Just in case you missed the last time I blogged about this BOM, it's Northern Lights designed by Marti Michell.

This is what I'm shooting for.

    You're moving right along and it's beginning to show some real personality. I think it's going to be a lovely quilt to cozy up in when winter arrives--quiet and soothing. XOXO

    It looks like tricky piecing. Is it easier than it looks? Love those colors.

      I should include that in my post, I will for sure next week when I piece another block. It's mainly Lumiere de Noel by French General and Park Avenue by 3 Sisters, all for Moda.

    Looking great! I love the look of the neutral quilts, but I wonder if I could do it. Do you find yourself craving colour?
