I found this stack of fabrics and couldn't resist putting them all together into this full size quilt. I used to always make quilts this big, but now usually make smaller ones. The colors are muted, olive green, light blue, chocolate brown and yellows. It looks kinda like honey, from a distance. The backing is unbleached muslin and I sewed in the four orphan blocks rather than throw them away
I had Vere pick me up a "walking foot" while he was in GJ . It's a presser foot that pushes/pulls the fabric through the machine so smooth and easily. So rather than taking weeks to quilt it by hand or pay the long armer to quilt it for me, I was able to do this simple quilting in 2 days.
