Fantastic combination of those blocks and the 'modern' look! What a compliment to the blocks. And of course your quilting, as always, is beautiful. Love the feathery flower with the swirl in the middle!

Hi Everyone!,
Well I wanted to share this quilt because some of you helped me make it....
I used 12 swap blocks. I was part of the Chocolate-Raspberry swap a few years ago...and I also was part of the monthly block swap... my colors were pink & Brown. I have about 36 blocks waiting to be used...so I used 12 of them in this. I have been inspired by the Modern quilting community. I wanted to mix my traditional and modern blocks to make a mod quilt. SO I sketched my own pattern. I used several pinks & browns from my stash...I could because there were several different ones within my blocks..so it's a modern scrappy
Just want to say "THANKS" to all of you who helped me make this.
I quited different designs in each section of the quilt. It's a way for me to practice new designs..and spice it up a bit. I have lots of personal projects on the horizon because I have a booth at MQX west...I want some new samples to hang...so you will be seeing lots of new ones.....YAY! SO I need the practice.
Thanks for looking.
Blessings
