The other day I mentioned<\/a> finding some piecing. I thought I would let it languish for awhile, but I need the space on my design wall for other projects, so I quickly sewed it together. <\/p>\n

I am pretty happy with the way it turned out. I had very low expectations and was rewarded with a better than expected outcome.<\/p>\n

I was able to use all the pieces I found and only had to add a little bit of some peach Grunge I had laying around. I didn’t have much of it left and it was about the only color that went with these soft muted colors. At Julie’s suggestion I added a small strip of Tilde pink to get a little more length. I didn’t think it went with the April Cornell fabrics, but Julie said it picked up some of the darker pinks in some of the flowers. It is a little big strange looking for a top, but hopefully someone will like it.<\/p>\n

Soon it will be off to the Community Quilt team.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
