Design Wall Monday 9/17/12

Up on my design wall is another Christmas Log Cabin block to make four done - not sewn together.  Not sure yet how I'm going to lay these. Only 21 to go:
I'm linking up to Judy's Patchwork Times and Lyn's Bom's Away. Go on over and see all the eye candy there.  And don't forget my book giveaway is still on till Wednesday. Go here to enter.

Someone may have come up with this before me, but I can't remember who or if I saw it in a mag or book - I read of lot of them and if you'd like to see a partial list of my quilt books, you can go to http://www.angiesbookshelf.com/ to see them under the keyword quilting. So here is my version of furrows: I just kept grabbing from my stash to make this scrappy version. The little blue squares are fusible raw edge applique. I wanted to try another all over quilting pattern and chose baptist fan. It quilted quickly and was easy to do going from side to side. You can see the quilting in the light areas. This quilt measures about 40 X 48. I was happy it used up some big size scraps!
I'm finishing the quilting on UFO #3 and I'll be able to show it to you once I get back from Puerto Rico.
Quilting leads to contented hearts.
