observations
Bali pops are all not cut the same width,
Bali pops also bleed when wet. And always over fabric that you have cut waiting to use.
1 7/8 inch squares are really teeny tiny.
They also make 2.5inch pinwheels. Not 3.5 like I thought. Thankfully these still work. Aren't they cute??
And too much turkey, affects cats just like people.
Hope you had a fantastic Easter weekend too.

My Old Red Barn Quilt Along quilt from summer 2008.
I doubled mine to make it king-sized. I absolutely love this quilt.
Quilted with Tendril and a yummy Cotton Mako thread.
I didn't have enough fabric left for binding. I lucked out and found a meter of an ancient old Moda line, I think it was called Jane's Garden? Something Garden lol. Anyways, there was just enough to bind this in and it matches almost perfectly.

Blocks #5
And blocks #6.
I had originally planned the fabrics in the separate blocks; one block being red and green and the other being the multi-colored and brown. But when I ironed the blocks, I liked the way they looked and this is the way they ended up.
I'm absolutely loving this quilt!
And thank you sooooo much for all your compliments on the quilt yesterday. I'm not a big pink fan but this quilt grabs me. It's going to be hard to give it away tomorrow but I know she is going to love it :)
