Enchanted Pond .... HSTeria III

Well, the 3rd HSTeria quilt top was supposed to be blue and white.....i have started it. but the enchanted pond layer cake jumped out at me one day and said...use me first.

So, HSTeria III is Enchanted Pond.  it is so pretty.  i had to buy yardage to add sashings and borders. it is 66 x 76".  i pieced 3 columns at a time. looking at the picture....i could have mixed up the blocks a bit more. you just don't see that when it is laying on a table. but it is what it is.


The blocks went together quickly with Thangles. each pinwheel block has an opposite twin....using the same fabrics...but in the opposite area. 


 For every 2 pieces of layer cake....i got 2 pinwheel blocks....no waste at all.


So, NOW the next HSTeria top will be blue and white....hahahhaha

But those brights with black are calling my name, too.  i just cut bright strips today for little thangles.  

Vicki, you created a monster.  I guess that is a good thing....fabric is coming off the studio shelves.

I found your blog while looking for inspiration in using Enchanted Pond charm packs. Little pinwheels, why didn't I think of that? Yours is just lovely!
