teacups: I Need a Cup of Tea, top completed

Teacups

I Need a Cup of Tea
about 54 inches square

54 blocks
Block finishes 3 by 5 inches

I describe how to make the block HERE.
And how to do the sashings HERE
Quilt was constructed in vertical columns and no outside sashings so outer blocks touch the borders.

A good quilt to piece and quiet my mind. A calming cup of tea was in order in November.
Love it in the red and white. And I am making it in the Solids + Prints style too as a long range project.

I included 10 inch wide borders, a place for Sue DiVarco to do her longarm magic.

My design, use at your pleasure.

Backing is this delightful Ski Hill
by Corrine Wells for Riley Blake.
LOVE those crabapple shaped gondolas.

What a super quilt! Very graphic. I wonder how it would be as floral teacups, if it would read strong enough as this does. Beautiful work.
