To Sash or Not to Sash....

I took a moment this morning to iron a few of my rumpled applique quilt blocks for the Plaid Rose quilt. I did all these blocks by hand. I wish the photos were better. I just can't get good pictures with my little camera.

I really want to finish this quilt! I was going to hand quilt it but there's just no way. I don't have the time and my hands aren't in the shape they used to be in.

So, I'm going to iron a few blocks a day and show you. The ironing is a big deal because (shame on me) the blocks were all crumpled up in a box.

I feel like I have a split personality. I love homespun plaids, redware and primitive decor and I love the bright, happy colors of aqua, red, yellow, orange and lime.

I guess I'm a happy girl who always comes back to primitives that feel like the holidays and snuggling in for the cold weather. Maybe that's it...a warm weather/cold weather thing. So guess you'll be seeing some poorly photographed appliqued blocks for the next couple of days. Any suggestions on sashing and setting would be greatly appreciated. I think there are about 16 blocks. Have a great Wednesday! Cheery wave from Bev
