Fallen Leaves

27 02 2013

This mini quilt, constructed from twenty-five different fabrics, plus the borders, was the result of a class at City Quilter, called ‘Little Bits”.  The design is by Cindi Edgerton, and reminds me of walking in the woods in the deep Fall, with all the magnificent colors on the ground.  The project was “paper pieced”, with very careful attention to the placement of the colors and bits.  The little piles of each color were placed in a precise order because each one “borrowed” some bits from adjacent piles.  It was a very interesting project, and resulted in a delightful table topper for Autumn.  I found in my stash the perfect border, of Autumn Leaves.
