May 2017, Full Size Quilt of muted colors,

 I found this stack of fabrics and couldn't resist.  I randomly sewed them together into nine-patches and put them together into this full sized quilt.  A few weeks ago, I had Vere pick up a "walking foot" for the sewing machine.  It's a  presser foot that pulls/pushes the three layers of fabric through evenly.  So instead of taking weeks to quilt by hand I was able to quilt this in two days.

The bottom picture is of the back, unbleached muslin using four of the orphan blocks left over from the front.
