Paper piecing Pickle Dish Variation Part 1

I am using the Eden fabric I brought to make a quilt from the pickle dish pattern.


1.)I cut the strips and lined them up.

 Put right sides together, then line them up. Pin to paper.

Bad picture, but you turn the paper over and sew down the dotted line.

Christmas from UPS

I received these beautiful kits from Connecting Threads. I can not wait to take a rotor cutter to them.  Sorry about the sun reflection on the photo.

I bought these fat quarters from a local quilt shop. These are going to make a beautiful quilt. The collection is Eden by Moda.

I also had to have a couple of yards of the Weekend collection from Free Spirit. What a beautiful collection.
