Quilt News! AHIQ Green Challenge Quilt Top w' Sawtooth Borders in Progress, Improv String & Sawtooth Border Piecing, Mary Hogan's New Book, Log Cabin Improv

Log Cabin Improv  by Mary Hogan is an excellent book.

I'm piecing improv sawtooth borders so I'll have a big supply.

These are my string borders for another project, using Mary Hogan's great tips.

More string borders and sawtooth borders, I've pieced this last week.

And more of my pieced sawtooth borders for yet another project, they're habit forming.

My AHIQ 'Green' Challenge Quilt is going to be finished with sawtooth borders!

 

Quilt news from the valley!

Happy October! We are enjoying sunny fall weather and pumpkins and squash from the local markets. 

Mary Hogan's book, Log Cabin Improv is an excellent book full of good directions and tips. I have been reading it over and over and piecing string and sawtooth borders like it's going out of style. 

I pulled out my 'Mostly Green' unfinished quilt top, started as a challenge quilt for AHIQ's challenge; green. I couldn't figure out how to finish it, now I know! Sawtooth borders, yes!

Mostly Green has four patch blocks, sixteen patch blocks and nine patch blocks and of course is mostly green. I'm excited about finishing it up now.

And that is the news from the valley where string and sawtooth borders are multiplying in my sewing room. Stay tuned to see how I'll use them in new projects.

Remembering to be thankful, I'll be by to visit!
