Second quilt top for September 2026...............

I'm showing the close up shot first for the true color.

The greens don't jump out at you like the blues, but there are several of them in the quilt top too.  I'm happy the two alternate fabrics worked well together.  The leafy one had dark areas and light areas so it changed dramatically with the 6.5" cuts.








This top is so beautiful and peaceful looking, much better in real life than in a photo.  It is 60" x 72", the smallest of the 3 tops made with the same selection of browns.  More blues and greens were added into the 16 patch and this 9 patch.  It is definitely nature's colors.

With this series (Snail's Trail, 16 patch, and 9 patch) I was happy to use so many brown, gold, and rust color fabrics, and I was really happy to use up 3 large prints in the last 2.

    I’m glad you posted a close up picture of some of the blocks as that gives me a better appreciation for what this finish looks like in person. It’s interesting to see how the leafy print varies across the quilt. Yay, for autumnal quilt top.

    VERY very nice -- and your colorwash skills definitely show in this third quilt. I believe you about in person vs. photos. Photos just never seem to capture the entire vibe of a quilt.
