Geese at Sunrise, Precut Challenge, Two Quilts Finished! from Jan's Quilts


The sun was directly overhead, so my photos aren't the best.  (That's my excuse, and I'm sticking to it!)  These are the last of the Jellyrolls I'm using for my Pre-Cut Challenge.  This jelly roll is called Geese at Sunrise and those are my kind of colors.



For the quilt backs, I used up some large pieces of scraps and a couple of orphan blocks.

These quilts measure 45.5 x 56.5 inches and 45.5 inches square.  Quilts # 16 and 17 for 2020.

Geese at Sunrise, Precut Challenge from Jan's Quilts


I'm still challenging myself to use precuts from my stash.  The focus this month is Jelly Rolls. I have at least 5 more jelly rolls in my stash, so I'll be busy for a while!  The jelly roll I used for this project is called Sunrise Colorstory by Kona Cotton.  The blue fabric is from stash. This measures 45" x 57". 

I have enough of these giant HSTs leftover to make a small baby quilt; I'm leaning toward pinwheels but that's a decision for tomorrow. 


May your bobbins always be full,

Geese at Sunrise ~ 2, Precut Challenge from Jan's Quilts


This is the layout I chose for the leftover HSTs from the Geese at Sunrise Quilt Top.  I initially thought I'd make pinwheels from the 16 giant HSTs; nope I didn't like that layout.  So I fooled around with the layout for a couple of days, sort of tweaking the design as I walked by the dining room table.  This quilt top measures 45" square.

My "normal" LAQ now has 3 of my quilts to work on, so I'm going to contact someone else about quilting these two.
May your bobbins always be full,
