Joy ( the green quilt in the right hand margin) lives again! I think I have told you that I have used the leftovers from this quilt to make other quilts and this is the 5th quilt made from the fabric bought for that quilt. I made the original Joy quilt, a quilt similar to Shea's quilt for Garrett (as a baby quilt), two quilts for the IQA Auction (2009, 2010) and now Shea's quilt. I felt a little guilty about having so many leftover pieces from Joy, but I don't now! Believe it or not, there is still some of the motifs in a bag. I also used a lot of the leftover batik material for 4Birds. I bought so much fabric for Joy---it had over 114 different fabrics, many of them fat quarters, so there was a lot of fabric left over. Don't be surprised if I make some more "Joy leftover quilts".
I love the scallops. Thanks, Dawn for the workshop. It was easier than I ever imagined and I know I will make scallops again. Shea, you made a beautiful quilt!!!! I'll get it to you as soon as I can.
