I needed 3 more fabrics for the Goldfinch quilt and got them dyed Tuesday. While they were processing I didn't want to start something new so I decided to work on my goal to quilt 6 veterans quilts this month. Here are numbers 3 and 4.  This one was made by peg and she used a lot of scrappy blues for the pinwheel blocks. There's even a fabric with a shark print in there somewhere.  I don't remember who made this one but I like it. It's a great way to use some scrappy 16-patch blocks.  I quilted them with white thread mostly because I wanted to bring some white into the dark blue borders of the 16-patch quilt.
I have 2 more loaded and ready to quilt today. Tomorrow is our monthly quilt club sewing days so I want to have these done to return to people for binding. By Sunday I'll be working on the Goldfinch.

That is one of the nice things about dyeing fabric. The time during processing can be used for other things. I often just leave mine overnight.
