I can't remember when I started this - sometime this spring - but I finally finished it at the end of October. I used my Go Baby! die cutter for the Sisters Choice blocks, so the blocks went together quicker and more accurately than if I had cut them myself. The quilt grew and grew so that I needed to buy more fabric (the yellow pin dot mostly) and dig into my scraps, but it all started with a fat quarter bundle of "Dutch Garden" from Boundless.
It took me a while to quilt as I went very slowly and carefully, using a stencil for the on-point plain blocks, free motion in the pieced blocks, and a 1" grid around the edge of the center. I kept waiting for a sunny day to photograph it - no luck! November has been exceedingly gloomy. But here is a photo from our recent show and tell at guild.
