Another Bright Quilt-- with Charm Squares this time.

A few years ago, when I was a new quilter, I bought my first charm pack from Connecting Threads.
I used them as the center of these double bordered, set on point, blocks.  My Sunshine 16 and I recently got a lot of practice with feathers, figure 8's, straight lines, and all sorts of designs and finished it up.


Out in the garden-- I wanted to show the tomatoes, zucchini, flowers, etc. but can't fit it all in.  (Still need to wash out the chalk lines.)
On the bed.


I want to make some pretty white pillow cases.
