A New Project

I am back to sewing...but not with my own machine. I am using a loaner from the quilt shop. So, of course, since I hadn't sewn anything for a while, I had to start something new. I fell in love with the Great Granny block. There is a quilt along going on, hosted by Jodi @ Pleasant Home and Lori @ Bee in My Bonnet. I am using an Amy Butler jelly roll for the rounds, Robert Kaufman Fusions for the centres and Kona Snow for the background. I have a plan for these blocks in mind, but more on that later.
