Back here, when I talked about using the Normandy Court fabric collection for a quilt
other than the one I bought it for, I had looked at several different
patterns....and had settled on a 16 patch block.
Then, I saw this quilt...and fell in love with the bowtie block.

| sorry, no idea where I first saw this. |
What really cinched it for me, though, was seeing this quilt...

How could I not make one? So, that's what I am working on. I have 36 blocks done and am starting to put them together...
I am super excited about this quilt top!!
But, you know what? Once it is done, I really need to NOT start another quilt until...well, until a lot of things, but most importantly...until I baste and quilt and bind a few of the flimsies I have waiting.
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.". Jeremiah 29:11

I have a pattern that is done with plaid homespuns and love the look, but if I can't sew, cut and piece, I get lost, lol.

The bowtie use in a quilt looks so much better than a single block... i do like the color combo you have going there!
I can see why you like the Bowie quilt. Very nice. Yes I will be watching American idol. Joyce
