EDITED.....CHECK IT OUT ! Having a PIECEful morning !

Thought I'd play around with a charm pack

 that Wanda gifted me with several years ago......never found anything that seemed worthy of it before.  But I like this design that Wanda herself is playing with, offered in pdf form by Elizabeth Hartman for SewBabySew.

I'm sewing the strips together now, and going to choose a sashing fabric after the strips are made.  I think I like it with light sashes like this.

(Don't be confused.....this strip wasn't sewn together.....just laid out.)

I had laid out this idea with dark sashes and liked it too, but decided to try to actually follow a pattern for a change since my amount of squares is limited.

Of course, I never get ANYTHING done without it's allotment of cat hair, thanks to my constant sewing room companion, China.........

So, after a few hours, here's today's finished results.

I wish the photo did these colors justice.  There's lots of peach, and the brown is a pinky brown, then there's a goldish hue......ah, luscious !

I didn't quite have enough of the border fabric for the sashes, so two of them have a substitute fabric.  This was meant to be machine-quilted, but I think I may have to spend more time with it than that would require !

It only measures about 33 by 40 inches right now, so I'm thinking of adding an outer border.........undecided on that.  I think I'll live with it for awhile and see what it wants. 

Love it !

Thanks, Wanda Gayle, for the fabrics AND the idea !
