Some quilts from my archives.....
It was rooster love at first sight. A paper pieced rooster pattern I found in a magazine! I'll find it later in the week (perhaps) 'cause I know it was worth keeping. I first started out with the wall hanging, then used the same pattern in the quilt guild's round robin quilt challenge. I was really pushing the fabric limit by the time I got to the last round....the flying geese had to have some help getting around this large quilt! I call this one Roosters On A Lark.
Here is round one (medallion center) round two (four patch) round three half-square triangles, round five (curves), using nothing but scraps from previous quilt projects.
Eleven of us serious quilters are heading out this morning to our semi-annual quilt retreat at Camp Harris where someone else cooks for us....then cleans the kitchen! TTFN ~ Marty

Have a WONDERFUL time, Marty! But I hope you "serious" quilter will have a lot of laughs as well (I know you will!). I love the retreats where you sew, answer the dinner bell, then walk away and let them "deal with it". I can't wait to see what you work on.
