Battening down the hatches...

Made this quilt in 1999 from the pattern that appeared in Quiltmaker magazine the pattern was called Appalachian Trail.  Used scraps of dress fabrics and calico for the backgrounds.  It has flowers and leaves appliqued on the drunkards path blocks. Dresden scallops for the border fabrics.  This quilt was hand  quilted and given to a family member. Somewhere I do have a photo of the finished quilt, just could not find that one. This is a picture of a hardcopy of a photo I have of quilts made.
These blocks are trimmed to three and ten and a half inch blocks.More blocks sewn, they have not been trimmed. Have to make three more of the large pinwheel blocks. The quarter square blocks need another lot, so will count how many more is required. We had -5C over night, so yesterday afternoon all the plants that needed to be covered up got their winter jackets on. Snow expected today and overnight into tomorrow.
