I have been working on the center of the Rotherfield Greys quilt from Di Ford's book, Primarily Quilts. I love all of the quilts from her book, but this quilt has everything: English paper piecing, applique', traditional piecing and lots of different fabrics.
I've been making 1/2" hexagons for this quilt and another project for awhile. I talked about them in this post.
Here are a couple of photos of the quilt from Di's book.

I have heard so many good things about that book. Your work is amazing, can't wait to see more.
ReplyDeleteI too have the book. I'll watch with interest to see your progress. Have to keep on with my Mrs Billings coverlet. Mustn't get side tracked...haha!
ReplyDeleteglorious quilts! and yes, they do have it all!
ReplyDeletelove you hexies with the fussy cuts.
That is my favorite quilt in her book. I hope to make it someday, too. Thanks for the inspiration!!
ReplyDeleteLuann, thanks so much for the suggestion of where to buy the book. I got it!! and it came fast. Like you, I like all the quilts in the book. I've decided, when I get some things done, that the first one I make is Oh, Dear, Mrs. Tompkins. Thanks for linking to Applique Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteWhat.a fabulous quilt and now I want the book. Going to have to look for it on amazon. I have made some of those small hexie flowers too,,,plan on using them on a border. They are fun to make, but a tad tedious! Yours look great!
