The Autumn Windmills top is done. Thanks for the input on the border … most of you seemed to feel like I did that the darker one was a better frame for these blocks.

And since I just can’t waste the leftover bits of the strip sets, there’s a doll quilt too. I’ve got the pieces sewn together already and I’ll put a small border on it tomorrow.

I’ve set aside the other leaf print with a green and a neutral fabric and will probably use it for one of the 3 fabric quilts using the leaf as the focus fabric.
I always love your autumn-themed quilts, Mary!
This is just gorgeous , I love it.
Very nice and Autumn cozy; both of them.
Dark border makes it “pop” and looks so perfectly framed!
Autumn Windmills is so pretty–the darker border really adds a lot …
[hope you are still taking it easier?]
Hugs, julierose
Good plan for the leaf print!
The darker fabric was a great choice. The quilt is wonderful.
Windmill quilt looks great! The border is perfect. Hope you are still feeling better even with sewing again. Take care! Judy
Oh yes – that turned out beautifully! Your doll quilts are such a great way to use up scraps. Do you have a special place to donate doll quilts? I’ve made a few over the years but as my granddaughters are outgrowing that doll phase I haven’t been sure what to do with them.
I’m so glad that you are having fun sewing again!
Love visiting your blog. I know you call these small doll quilts and have two willingrecipients. If you ever need another destination I know that NICUs accepttiny blankets and there are “angel” organizations for still born babies. Just some thoughts. Love your great ideas.
