We visited a couple of patchwork shops and, miraculously, each time I walked out empty-handed. But, I had done a bit of shopping earlier in the week and it arrived this morning. Lila Tueller "Soiree" jelly roll and pink fabric (the green is for the backing). Am planning a quilt for a friend's daughter's 18th birthday in July - I think she'll like this fabric.
In 2006 I took part in a row-by-row round robin with an on-line group - we each made our own log cabin row to set the colours for the rows then each row followed a theme (baskets, stars, houses, applique, paper piecing etc). I hadn't been able to make a decision about the layout then last week realised where this quilt will look wonderful and so called in some help (John) to sort out where each row should sit.
.
Also having a roster day today to do some of my secret project and might even get around to sandwiching this quilt.

Love the layout of the quilt...and nice to have a couple of days off to spend stitching! - and visiting art exhibitions....!
The exhibition sounded wonderful, love the fabric and the quilt is amazing...
Who wouldn't love that fabric! It is so pretty. Beautiful quilt too.
The fabric is very pretty and if she is a 'pretty' sort of girl she should love it. Your row-by-row has turned out just great.
Your row by row looks great, nice to see it together. Fabrics are also lovely and the exhibition sounds like a fun thing to do.
