A Little Break

I have been working on Dear Jane and Sylvia's forever now it seems and finally I just needed a little break. 

I had ordered some patterns the other day from Mrs. Rosies Quilt Company that uses the new Moda precuts..candy (which are little 2 1/2 inch squares or mini charm packs).

I had enough fabric to acutally do both patterns but I only finished one so far, although the other is all cut out and ready to go.



 
I used Odds and Ends charm pack, this is the X topper and the O topper is ready to go next. 
 
 The lovely thing is that they don't take a lot of fabric and they are not very big so it is a nice change of pace (other than cutting 160 1.25 in squares that is), and no I was not going to draw a line on each on of those life the directions said.  I have the Angler so there you go.
 
Now to find time to quilt and bind this puppy and I will have a little finish for the year. 
 
 
Have a wonderful day.

  1. Oh 'chelle, I almost thought you had posted a photo of *my* "Speck" on your blog today! Our fabrics are so similar -- and I did the "X" quilt, too. Can't wait to see it in person.

  2. Nice "X" quilt I don't draw the line either. I press each one in half and sew on the fold and flip the corner. It's is much easier.
