Passacaglia Progress



This days I'm trying to making progress on my newest Passacaglia. It has been much easier this time around because I've just pinned it on top of my previous Passacaglia quilt. This time its mostly reds, brown, creams and pinks, fussy cut of course, pieced with a simple and efficient running stitch.





I'm also working on a border for another one of Willyne's quilts. This border is my design. Can you guess which quilt this is from her first book?



Til next time...Piece out.... Hee hee.

Millefiori Quilt...La Passacaglia Again!

I've got a stack of rosette pancakes almost 6 inches high ready to be assembled.
These rosettes are addicting!   I love how delightful each fussy cut block shines when sewn together. I got a little carried away and have five rosettes extra that will be waiting in the wing if needed.
