What's on my Design Wall......17 May 2010

I am continuing to work on the same project that I had started last week.  I have ordered red fabric to go with this quilt.  You would think that I would have red in my stash.  I do have red in my stash, all the wrong reds.  I hope that it will arrive today.  You will have to come back next week and see what I do with the red.  Hopefully it is not a dud. 

Also this week I have been working on the arches for a wedding ring quilt.  These are paper-pieced, so the white you see in the picture is the paper.  I have them divided into sets (ribbons).  There is 16 arches - A and B arch in each set.  They start with light on one end and dark on the other.  So what you are seeing is an A arch lying on top of a B arch and they go in opposite directions.  I have 11 sets to make.  I am trying to decide if I want to make two of these quilts (I have twin beds) or do I just want to make one and hang it.  We will see how much of a pain it is when I start putting it together.  This quilt is just not the usual wedding ring.  It also has a star in it.  Actually I think it will go together pretty easy, we will see.

I didn't report my stash yesterday, so I am going to include it here.  I pulled 1 yard.
