QOV top...........

I was sewing in the basement last night because I was doing a load of laundry. I only had 3 blocks left to sew together for this QOV top so I did them a couple nights ago and last night got the top sewn together and pressed. It still needs a border to be big enough for their minimum size requirement. It is a Mary Johnson pattern but we made the blocks 12" instead of 9" because we cut it with the Accuquilt studio dies. That meant we would have less blocks in the quilt. One of the other ladies did the cutting and another one sewed the Churn Dash blocks. I sewed the star blocks and assembled the top.
Since I had the iron on, I finally pressed the 3 blocks I made earlier this week.

What a beautiful QOV quilt top. I really like the darker red star points and the lighter red 4 patches together. Your colors are exhuberant, as always! It's nice that you worked with friends on this too.

Another lovely quilt... and what I admire the most is your accurate piecing. Piecing often goes unnoticed unless it is bad! Great colors too.

and I'm praying for you often...

Love your fabric choices and the larger block size works too ... I wouldn't mind having the studio but not enough room so I'm happy with my GO
