Sampler UFO from Cozy Kitten yahoo group

May will probably be sparse because of a vacation.
I hope to do some handwork in the car and at night, but probably no completions.
I'll just have sew like the wind in June.

My whole week has been working on the test quilt.
It is big.
It is beautiful.
I can't wait to show you photos.
Here are some bonus triangles that show the backside of the colors.
I think I'll end up using them to make a table runner or something for the bedroom.
I have 2 more blocks to make and then to get the rest of the quilt top sewn together.
