Yellow and Grey


I'm excited to be starting this project. Since sometime early this fall, I have been collecting fabrics in shades of grey and yellow with a large quilt in mind. For the past couple of days, I have been busy making half square triangles.

And stitching them together.

And making them into these Lady of the Lake blocks!

Granted, I only have two completed blocks but I will get there. I wasn't familiar with the Lady of the Lake block until Rita posted the pictures of her quilt. I was completely inspired.
