Assembly of quilt tops

I have been assembling tops lately. The hexi blocks are all together now.  I have an idea of a border treatment that involves more hexi blocks using up all those odd pieces of warm brown fabric.

It was time to put together the circa 1880 blocks as I had to order additional fabric for the plain blocks.  No excuse now!  I decided to complete mine with a light fabric versus a tan fabric.  I wanted a light airy quilt.  There are many more blocks and this is for a queen sized bed.  So far I love it.

    I especially like your unique take on the hexie quilt.
    Fish ponds are a great place to sit and relax--very pretty!

    Lovely lily with the goldfish. It might inspire a quilt. Your 1880 blocks are looking great and will leave special areas for your quilting.
