Country Charmer Update - October


I just wish I could be with that wild pair in California - yes, the designer of Country Charmer, Lynn of Sewn'WildOaks - and Sue of Quilt Times.  They have been teaching and enjoying a wonderful outdoors quilt show.  Now they off to Lynn's cabin on the mountain - hope the bear minds it's P's & Q's.  Oh, you don't know about the bear?  Better go visit their blogs and catch up on the story.

Well back to the Country Charmer......


For all my struggles with color and placement, the quilt is a flimsie!  That little tag is to mark the top/first block  because......


my Country Charmer is currently at Valerie's - Pumpkin Patch Quilter - waiting for it's turn for her magic.


This is the frosting she put on my last quilt sent to her, so I can;t wait to see what she does with Charmer.

I will be linking up with our lovely Lesley - The Cuddle Quilter - be sure to see everyone's progress.

Sewingly Yours,
Sharon

Every Country Charmer quilt I see is just beautiful, and yours is no exception. I can't start a new project right now, but if I could, it would be this!!

This will be a beautiful quilt. I think your color placement has resulted in a very balanced look.

Oh Sharon, your quilt is so gorgeous! I'm so glad you made it along with us. You have such a flare for choosing colour and fabrics, that you have made a stunning flimsy!Can't wait to see it quilted. I can tell from your other quilt that your quilter does phenomenal "frosting!" Thanks for linking up!

I remember that you struggled with choosing the fabrics for some blocks at the beginning, but that is a beautiful looking quilt.
