I finished the top - It's a mystery to me - Something's Fishy. This quilt has a first for me, only a border on three sides, top, bottom and left. That way I could finish the fish. It was a fun hand-piecing project. I have not worked with solids before. For that matter, I have not worked with quite so many colors before either. I have become a little more comfortable with pink, though it is still not my favorit color.
Had fun select the solid colors based on the Kaffe fabric and was amazed when I set those blocks how well they played with their neighbors.  |

My finished Mystery Quilt top which I
 named Covid 2020, It’s for the Birds. Note the birds scattered throughout, Tula Pink fabric. Also has three large stars. A careful blending of Kaffe and Tula fabrics form a border collague, with a narrow green polka dot inner border to accent the green collors and relax the eyes. To say the least, doing this top challenged my creativity, color sensitivity, and sanity! Now on to doing ruler work quilting to finish the quilt.. |

Hi Alex and John, I made a mini quilt. The block size is 3”
I enjoyed it all the way, I used the scraps from kaffe collection of a quilt i made in 2010 for an exhibition 10 years ago. I always follow you in Facebook. A big hug and love from Costa rica.  |

Not a Kaffe, but my version of Sequoia (wasn't sure where to add it) - I needed it bigger and adding blocks became too busy. I tried increasing them to 8", but didn't like them as much so instead I added the plain blocks. Birdhouse and 2 of the 3 birds are from Barbara Pershing's Condo Tweet Condo. Deciding if I need to add anything above and to the right of the double birdhouse.

Pulled yellows, greens and purple from bits and pieces scrap pile. Tried a setting that didn’t work (really do need a design wall) and salvaged the flying geese and did this. Great way to practice piecing and try the different blocks in the book. Made only a slight dent in my scrap pile.
