COLONIAL TIMES 2

COLONIAL TIMES 2:

I pieced the English paper pieced sections from Jan. 2013 to May 2016. It's pleasurable and there was no hurry. I alternated dark and light blues from my scrap bin. The strips of hexagons are appliqued to plain unbleached muslin.  I hand appliqued the middle 5 strips and machine appliqued the 2 outside strips just to be creative. Here is the link to the discussion on the paper piecing:  https://indianaquilter40.blogspot.com/2014/01/english-paper-piecing.html



Here is a photo of the finished top.  Made of cottons.  Size is 86" x 94".


I like the choice of fabrics and the look of this top.  It does look historical and might end up being a quilt to hand quilt at a demonstration.
