The 48 7-1/2" blocks that make up my next quilt are finally done. These are paper-pieced kaleidoscope blocks. I'm kind of sick of paper piecing. I am so frugal, thatthe small amount of waste from paper-piecing bugs me. Plus, it makes a mess in my studio. This background is constructed of about 20 neutrals and 10-12 blues and greens, all batiks...my favorite. Does it look like anything familiar? Maybe a beach.
It will have some major applique added to it to transform it to another level. You'll just have to stay tuned to see what it will become!

It's looking fab! Now I see what you needed oodles of neutrals for. You found perfect ones too!
It definitely has a beach feel, somewhere exotic with gorgeous water! You did a really nice job of blending the colors. It would take me forever to commit to piecing one block, let alone the whole quilt full. A really, really nice job! Looking forward to seeing the finish.
Gorgeous! I can't wait to see what will be next... Looks like a beach to me too:)
Love the beach!!
