Piecing the Garden Wall

Published on by hollydeequilts

I love gardening and this name of this quilt just makes me smile.  I am working on my own garden wall quilt but am at a stand still waiting for my fabric order so I can sash the blocks (and complete the very last block which I cut the background fabric too short!  A photo of my progress is at the bottom of the post.

But first I would like to highlight the progress made by students in this one day class I taught at Pinwheels and Posies a couple of Saturdays ago.

Linda was already working on her quilt prior to class, in each stack there are 6 blocks. She is making 2 or 3 of these quilts - they are quite addicting

I am using an ombre fabric for my background - I think a nice name for this quilt will be Midnight in the Garden or perhaps Moonlit Garden - do you have a suggestion for a name?

And look at this great idea from Laresa

Laresa had a great tip to share with your group. And I love her beautiful smile!

And then just because……

Nothing to do with quilting - but these little red birds love to sing outside my quilt room windows - they are very camera shy though!

Which garden will you be working in today?  I hope it makes you smile!
