Sunday afternoon I was not in the mood to tackle sewing 44 HSTs together for each Mystery Quilt block border and I need to decide border options before I make more floral pinwheel blocks so I pulled out some UFO pieces from my box of guild charity projects. I have had the dinosaur musician pieces for at least a year. Sometimes I enjoy the challenge of piecing a creative setting for blocks. This morning I added the second border to finish the small quilt top. This is what I came up with.
I still have 3 of the dinosaur blocks for another small quilt for another day OR maybe someone else would like the challenge.
I am planning to teach an easy half-step Bargello quilt at Midlands Tech spring 2013. I love Bargello and half-step has NO matching of seams. I pulled out fabric and cut strips to make the sample quilt. I managed to piece the entire top today even with breaks to help a friend get his car to the mechanic and visit the nursing home to check on Mother so this should be a nice beginner small quilt.
From strips ........
To top ..........
