The beginnings of FANCY FOREST
I have the DELIGHTFUL DESERT by Elizabeth Hartman as well but I really really liked the bunnies in this one.
It would be nice to make the larger quilt but I am starting out small because we all know it might end up in the UFO pile is I go larger..... sad to say.
This is so much fun, like putting a puzzle together.
I am using Island Batik fabrics "Flea Market" and the 5" stash builders that came in my new box.
The 2" strips are perfect for this project (except if you need larger pieces and that is where the 5" strip stash builders comes in).
Can I just say, I am looooooving this.

I made up the fancy forest quilt ( baby size) using my own hand dyed fabric for 99% of it. I used a store bought black for bits and pieces.
