Southern Notes

Southern Notes was so fast and easy, kind of a welcome break. 

Gloomy Prospects, Feeding the Rebels, Draft Threat

Love Gloomy Prospects, which is green and black. 

Nice warm colours in Feeding the Rebels, at least that is what I thought. 

Sorrow and Greenfield and Stockton

Well, I haven't had much time lately to do any quilting, thanks to a new job reporting for the local weekly newspaper . That development, coupled with a frustrating error on my latest block, robbers,  has discouraged me from blogging. 

I feel better now, so here are the next two blocks: Greenfield and Stockton and Sorrow. 

I honestly love Sorrow, I think it is the star- I always love stars and think this one is very striking. Greenfield and Stockton is nice, but I wish I would have used one contrasting colour. Also, my pattern had six strips, not five- weird!

Dark Gloom and Alvin McClure

The first four blocks

The first four blocks of my epic quilt include: Alarming Conditions (which should not have been completed first, as it was the hardest yet), Oath of Allegiance, Conscript Law and Anxieties. 

Anxieties is one of my favourites so far ( I have completed 24 to date). I love the striking colour combination.
