While perusing Pinterest....
I repinned a gorgeous vintage quilt. Don't you just love Pinterest???
this quilt is a Vintage Quilt belonging to Anne Sutton.

It would appear this quilt is done by English paper piecing, but I thought I would play a little with the design and a couple of special rulers....
I am only giving a sneak peek today...
When I saw the pinterest picture it reminded me of a color combination that I love....
a combination that was a favorite of this girl....
So using my Kaleido ruler and my Kite ruler from Marti Michell...
I have been able to work out this pattern, although I am partial to the English Paper Pieced version...
But for now, I will keep working this out with Green and Yellow leading the way....
Happy Friday!
