    Default Finally done with one and started another

    Just finished machine piecing and hand quilting... DIL picked the design.
    She found it a pic on Pinrest. and I did the rest. Just finished and
    delivered last weekend.
    I started the next one, this time I saw a pic of the brown one.
    I changed the center block, as I thought it was too dark as a
    whole. If anyone knows the name of either one of these I would
    appreciate sending me a note. Thanks for looking

    The 2nd quilt, the blocks is called Weathervane in Marsha McCloskey's Block Party book.

    I love the gold and white one with the eye catching pop of red! Great job on it!

    Thanks for finding it. I am hand quilting it now, and waiting for color chart from DD to get back to me so I can start piecing another one.

    They are both very pretty, but I do favor the second one.

    I think the first one is a herringbone
