In my last post, I showed you the Hedgerow Panel printed by Makower UK. Since then, I’ve cut up the panel, reorganizing the blocks. It was bothering me that the fox was looking at the rabbit. Now the fox is looking at the squirrel…I’m fairly certain there is no risk to our bushy tailed friend from the fox! And I moved the birds to the top of the quilt so it looks like they are flying in the sky. (Check back at my last post if you want to see the panel before I cut it up).

The tiny dark blue print is also from the “Hedgerow” fabric collection as is the the tiny running bunnies fabric.

The pieced block is called “Returning Birds”. It seemed like a good choice for this nature rich quilt.

The back will be a leaf fabric that has been in my stash. The fabrics were a misprint (the leaves should be in straight lines but they drift as they cross the width of the fabric) from Connecting Threads years. At the time I purchased a lot of yardage in multiple colors at a very low price. It has turned up in my quilts on and off. I’ve used 3 different colorways of the leaf fabric on this back, but they all coordinate with the quilt’s colors.

This quilt will be the size of a baby quilt…about 40 x 60 inches.

For my regular readers, I have company coming so there probably won’t be a post next Thursday.
