You've seen the fabrics in this photo before but now they are almost ready to be stitched into a quilt. This is a Quilt*A*Long project that Dana of Old*Red*Barn shared on her blog last summer. You sew 2-1/2" strips together and then cut them into square blocks. All the strips are sewn together.....14 strips total and each set of sewn strips yields three blocks for a total of 42 blocks. Gee and I thought I couldn't do math!! So, anyway, the next time you see these fabrics they will be a fully assembled quilt top and ready to be quilted. There's actually a possibility it will get quilted this weekend. You'll find out when I return next week. Til then.........Have a Happy Spring and Sewing Weekend!Sandi
P.S. Next Wednesday is the start of "Good Eggs Hoppin' Down the Bunny Trail Giveaway." My post on Tuesday will tell you the story and the link will be posted that will take you "hoppin' down that bunny trail to some fun Giveaways and great blogs!"

Lovely strip colors for spring, and I'm eager to see the full result. Have fun!
I have been collecting pinks and greens for a later project, so I certainly enjoyed seeing the variety that you have. I know that you will enjoy the retreat and that your being there will add to the others' enjoyment, too.
Have a safe trip and a LOT of fun (I know you will). Can't wait for a photo of this quilt top when you come back.
Wish I was joining you in Iowa (also one of my favorite states). I do hope the flooding there won't affect your retreat. I can't wait to read all about it when you return.
Wow! Love the fabrics in this quilt - would LOVE to know where I could get this pattern!
