Civil War Block 32: Carolina Lily


This was my first attempt at Y-seams...


I have no, zip, nada, nary a piece of chrome yellow or cheddar or even mustard 1800s reproduction fabric.   I've been assured I will grow to like these colors but I'm reserving judgment.

I did find a nice sized piece of a crackle-paint gold fabric in one of my scrap bins and I think that worked out pretty well.

    Very nice! And that crackle-paint gold reminds me of a flame in a bowl.

    I reiterate: I done flunked basic math in college.

    You stinker you. I'm still gearing up to try this one. Any hints on how to make it easier. Hugs

    I skirt around the y-seam issue at all costs. When I grow up I am going to be a real quilter and do the tricky stuff. : )
    The yellow looks good.
