Time Warp update

Here are the last 3 weeks of Time Warp stars. When Barbara started this fun sew a long back in January, I was so gung-ho. I made 2 or 3 each week from the chosen topic that week. This summer I feel lucky if I get 3 done in 3 weeks! No worries, Fall is just around the corner and I'll have lots more quilting time (I hope).

Week 30: Floral trailing vines (one of my favorites!)


Week 31: Toiles (another of my favorites)


Week 32: Faded synthetic dyes. Not one of my favorites, but I think I captured the faded green that is so prevalent late 19th century and early 20th century quilts. I really went crazy with the "think like the 18th century quilter" here. 


I am formulating a plan for these little babies, but nothing has materialized yet. Stay tuned. Can't wait to see what others will do. Gladi Porche has made a wonderful little quilt with some of her stars. I just love her colors. And Cynthia (Wabi-Sabi quilts) is planning two different layouts for hers. Check them out and have a great day.

    Your floral trailing vines is a beautiful block. I start with great enthusiasm and by the end hope I can finish

    Lovely stars. You always find great fabrics. Thanks for the links to other bloggers who are making stars. It's always nice to see what other Quilter's are pondering.

    I love your newest star blocks. And, I think you are ahead of me in the quilting and blogging departments this summer. :) We'll get back into rhythm soon, I'm sure. Happy Stitching!

    I love the toile one! Now I have to go pull all of mine and make a star with each! If I can just keep from buying more toiles.....
