Over the weekend I did get the rest of the 12.5" blocks for Koselig squared and onto the design wall.
The next step will be to sew them all together.
The scrappy pieced backing was assembled several weeks ago and rolled onto a pool noodle ready for pin basting.
And, once quilted and finished, Koselig will be in the 60" x 72" range.

One step at a time!

Really cute scrappy piece!! Lots of movement from that bird print...
nice work hugs, julierose
SEW glad that you managed some studio time, Julie!
Happy to find you again, now that Bloglovin seems to be working. Your posts inspire me in many ways -- the strip quilt 2nd from right on your header especially, as I have a similar quilt underway (which will never be finished!). I'm a "pretend" quilter as I don't want to do triangles, so you can imagine how many of your creations provide ideas, so thank you. I have a gifted pre-cut packs of Kaffe fabric waiting for ideas, and Koselig is perfect!
You have the best names for quilts! And thanks for showing how a bold print (the macaws) can be a centering-point.
Love it! Your speed at sewing is enviable and your abundant stellar ideas are wonderful.
Hugs!
Looking so good and I like the size you're aiming for. The Tula Pink parrot/macaw fabric is perfect , really shows off the other coloured strips.
It's interesting to see a scrap quilt with a common strong print background. I like the offset of the strings that make a change from alternate blocks. This will be fun for someone to use. Congrats.
