Nearly Insane Quilt - Block 20
Nearly Insane Quilt - Block 20 |
I have been asked a few times whether I am tired of red and white. Well, no. Over the course of this project my red and white collection has grown a lot. I have had my favourites and I have some that just never cut the mustard - for this project. I wonder what are the chances of Bonnie Hunter doing a red and white colour scheme for her Mystery Quilt will be this year?
