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!

How fun! I love when people see something on Pinterest and start making it. My mom made a scarf hanger :) simple but fun!
Cannot wait to see what you have come up with :)
What a pretty quilt, such unusual edging.
Oh what a lovely quilt!! I'm curious to see how youve worked it out with your special rulers. You've picked some gorgeous fabrics. It's a fun photo link, love that dress!!!
You are SO clever! I just look and dream about quilts on Pinterest! You get on and make them! These colours are wonderful together! I need more yellow in my life!
Saw you 'pin' om pinterest! I love the quilt and I am sure yours will be just as gorgeous!
I love yellow and green as well as Nicey Jane! I need to get on Pinterest...my daughter keeps telling me to!

Can't wait to see your solution, I tried the same thing!
Loving this. Love the lime green. When I was just a girl in the 60's, lime green was the "color". Love this.

Yellow and green, always so nice together. Reminds me of summer.
oooh . . .
how about that border!
I think you have a spare pair of hands hidden away somewhere?
Wish I could get a new shoulder :(
Done it! Just finished this pattern for my daughter's Christmas but it looks different because my stars are the light fabrics! Pieced it by hand but not paper pieced - Go Mary!
It will look fab with your colours - as usual!
OMG LOOOOOVE! Can't wait to see what you've worked up!!!
Great quilt...keen to see what you are up to!
i love the bright yellows and greens you've chosen.
Are you going to make those pointy edges? I love them!
What fun playtime! Your daughter Mary is beautiful (and my parents collect Belleek...)
Oh what fun, lovely colours - it is going to be beautiful. Then when I popped in to check out "this girl" I was not expecting to see a beautiful Irish dancer! More fun! Ah the memories that brings back!
