total of 24, half done.  Hope being random also distributes the colors evenly!

Here's 8 more grannies!

These are so fun to do, and of course they will all play nicely together because they are a jelly roll. If I'd looked better at the patterns before I dove in, I might have tried to space the strips that read as solids and place at centers and ends, for instance.  But it was all random and I like it!   I must try and find what pattern this is.

Design Wall Monday - Granny Squares!

I love these, just had to break open a Moda jelly roll and try the strip method.  It's quick to make 8 blocks at one time.

my feather practicing

Following Judy's feather lesson.  It gets better as I do them, but still a long way from feeling comfortable with this!  On the feather at the bottom I tried a little bit of echo quilting, I like the depth it adds.

Design Wall Monday - Designer Mystery

I finished making all 12 blocks for the  2011 BOM from the Fat Quarter Shop.  Not sure how I'll put it together, but I have a lot of scraps left over so I hope to use them somehow.  Because I enjoyed this series, I've already signed up for the 2012 series!
