The cute factor

Pretty...
Cute.... 
It's all in the size.  
The block is from Kim Brackett's "Scrap Basket Sensations".  The first rendering is 12", the second is 7".  Small is always cuter!  I challenged myself to find a way to cut these blocks from a set of two identical charm packs, and it worked.  I'm still making the larger one from two jelly rolls of "Blueberry Crumb Cake" but will now do a small version using the Sandy Gervais fabrics.  Probably don't have enough left of the charm packs to make the pieced border so that's up in the air.  

On other fronts, I finally finished my Wild Geese quilt with the plain border.  Much, much better.  I'm finally happy.  I know that some commented they liked the pieced border better, and I could see its' charms, but this pleases me.

Boy, do I love your Wild Geese quilt! It was beautiful with the pieced border too but this is so striking! A really lovely eye-catching pattern!
