The More Things Change....

The more things change, the better they get! I made these 4" hand pieced bow tie blocks more years ago than I care to remember. I'm sure you can tell by the fabric that it was not in the last decade. I must have had a plan to piece a small quilt.  There are sixteen blocks completed with pieces cut and marked for twenty-five. Twenty-five! I'm glad I didn't throw them away years ago, although I am throwing them away today. I had a chance to see how my style has changed over the years, and boy has it ever! I wonder what I'll be sewing 10 years from now, and what I'll be throwing away....

  3. I had that red fabric, in the forest green! It must have been 15 years ago or so... Amazing how dated it looks now!
