Sally, WOW! that is a beautiful quilt. The center part looks so peaceful and calming. Even the colors are restful. What a wonderful quilt to snuggle up under. Love the birds, butterflies, and the little girl. You sure have a nice assortment of interesting blocks around the outside edges too. Love every little bit of this quilt. You are very talented.

Thanks so much for sharing. Hugs across the miles, Shirley Mae

Wow that is beautiful Sally!

I did not design this one... Sally made this one on her own... I just provided the patterns for some of the blocks... my sampler was much much more simpler! Sally's is much more beautiful!

Great job Sally I love seeing your work!

Hugs!

Oh, what a great quilt. I just love it. I like the girl with the watering can - she's darling. Great job. I'm going to look at more patterns of Alina's.

This is a sweet quilt! I love the colors. And it gives me an idea of what to make for a neice that has been bugging me for a quilt. Thanks!

Thank you for all the kind comments! You made my week!

I Love Alina's girl and bird!!! (I'm not so fond of paper-piecing, but I did make my students do at least one to try the technique!)
I also love El's way of doing 2 9-patches at the same time. It's great for getting confidence as new quilters, almost foolproof matches. I added several 12" blocks around those including 'cyclone' and 'Leah's Star' from QIAD free downloads (and, of course, El's method for flying geese!)

This is so pretty! I'm ashamed to say that I only got the bunny done on this sew along. (Sigh!)
