Sets for the Summer

PassionPatchwork
Has 63 blocks done.
She plans to make 27 more = 90!

I love the subdued pink and blue color scheme and the side by side set.
I've been saving pictures over the summer and I can't remember what I've posted or not.

I (me personally) am done with the book I hope. I proof read it once again a few weeks ago---I hope that's the last time and that no mistakes have escaped me or the eagle-eyed editors. Now the artist will finish up the pages and then send it off to the printers. It should be out at the end of December.

 So now I have time to collect more sets and block photos.

Kathy in Canada had her blocks up on the wall and
 I see she used a similar rather controlled palette.

Karen has hers set and quilted. The blue sashing and border give it a true blue look.

The last time I looked AnneEliza was hand quilting hers.

The QuiltingBearGal has her top set with a bright yellow accent.

PatchGarden has used a completely different palette.

And Lillian of Lillian's cupboard has given her top to it's rightful owner who seems quite happy to have it.

Beautiful collection of Civil War quilts and especially fun to see two of my blog friends quilt's on parade. I'm anxious for the new book to come out.

Lots of beautiful combinations for the designs. I do like a lot of the designs and was thinking of using the ones I like and making a quilt with them.

Thank you so much Barbara for posting a photography of my quilt. I am always working on the last blocks (13 today) and I quilt them with the 'as you go" technique.
Have a nice weekend
