For September, Kathy Tracy's SmallQuiltTalk Yahoo! group made quilts based on a single quilt block called Dove in the Window. Once again, I was able to make the quilt using fabrics from my stach. I picked the fabric for the large squares first, and then picked fabrics that I thought would work with it. My husband helped me decide on the borders after I had narrowed my choices down to a handful. I was really happy with how it turned out, so I decided to hand quilt it - nothing fancy, just 1/4" from the seam lines, like I learned to do more than 20 years ago! I finished the quilt on a rainy weekend, so getting a photo in good outdoor light was delayed even more!
My October hexagon flower quilt top is done - just waiting to be basted, quilted and bound! I hope that I can finish it within a few days of the end of the month - November will be busy enough without starting it already behind!

So nice, and your fabric choices from your stash look as though you shopped precisely for this pattern. Always fun to get hubby involved!
