Decision Time

I was given this pretty and vibrant fabric a while ago and it is time that it was broken out of its packet. 

It has been taken out of the cupboard a few times looked at and put back as I was not sure how it was to end up.  The one thing I did know was that it was not going to be cut up into small squares as the toucans needed to be showcased.   


After much thinking out came a piece of paper to draw up a rough diagram.  (Every quilter can relate to the messy scribblings and measurements which would mean nothing to anyone else but themselves.)


Which is loosely based on a quilt that I made quite a few years ago 


The pieces are now cut and ready to go through the machine


Getting the blocks together will be my OMG for February.

Back soon and in the meantime

Happy sewing all

What a fun range of fabrics. It sound like an achievable goal to have the blocks made. It’s going to be a bright, happy quilt.
