Wednesday Work Out.....



I have a calendar photo of a vintage Gee's Bend quilt....
Coat of Many Colors
 
 
I love this quilt! And, I love that the rectangles are not split into two pieces to make it easier to piece.  Love the lines and the colors!
 
   
So I am {trying} to work it out....
I will let you know how it goes!
happy wednesday!

  5. As I said on IG, it looks like a bit of a jigsaw puzzle- with fabric! As Rachael said, you'll work it out and have another beauty to for us to drool over!

  15. I was shown a table runner in that design when I was a member of a quilting group in Sweden. From what I remember it was simple to put together, but it was only explained to me, and although simple enough, I couldn't get it into my head. I hope you manage to work it out.
