medallion quilt-a-long

It’s been a long time since I completed a quilt.  I currently have one that is basted awaiting quilting, another that is awaiting basting, and three that need to have the tops finished.  Oh, actually that might be four.  But I’m starting another one.

Meridithe is hosting a medallion quilt-a-long to celebrate her 100th blog post.  It’s a do it yourself type of quilt-a-long, where you start with a centre medallion, and Meredithe will suggest what to do with the next round on a regular basis.  So everyone will come up with something quite different.

I’m using the Prints Charming bird that I started embroidering at SIT months ago as my centre panel, and will be using my stash of Australian designer prints for the rest, with some solids thrown in. It will be interesting to see how this evolves – and whether I have enough fabric or will be forced to purchase more!

The first round has a theme of triangles. I wonder what I’ll do? But while I’m wondering, I’d better get cracking on some more embroidery on that centre panel.
