It all started with some leftover charms
A few years back I got carried away purchasing charms on eBay. Most of them have been worked into quilts but there was a pile of castoffs that got passed over through the various sortings and pairings. Using the rule of small pieces for ugly fabric I paired them with black and made them into 4-patches. With no particular pattern in mind, there they sat until I came across Bonnie Hunter's Patches and Pinwheels pattern. I added HST and additional 4-patches from my scraps and this is what I came up with. Just finished the top yesterday. It isn't pressed and doesn't have borders but I wanted to share. I'm calling it gemstones.
And I see the picture didn't post. Hang on while I see what I can do.
Here we go.

beautiful. Nowadays, I am working on taming my small pile of what I call my ugly fabric for which I find no place in other projects. Your quilt is an incentive for me to keep going. Thanks for sharing. You did a real good job!
