Hello, everyone. I was up to my ears with the pumpkin coasters and forgot to post for a few days. Sorry about that!
There has also been progress on the quilt back.
The orphan blocks--most of the log cabins, plus the triangle--have been sewn into short strips and dove-gray jelly roll strips are there to calm the busyness and unify the colors a bit. The pieced jelly roll section at the bottom was added to be sure of enough length. The side jelly roll pieces have been sewn on since this picture was taken. There is going to be a strip of 30's style floral on each side, then probably gray strips again, and finish out with a green 30's floral.
The top has been serged around the edge and washed. It awaits a session at the ironing board.
The lady, now unknown, who pieced the top did crumb piecing to make diamonds, which form stars, and bordered the stars with solid diamonds. After it gets ironed I will try to get a photo.
Until later!
