Moroccan Pottery

This poor little quilt sat on the frame for a week....waiting for me to get back from the Duck to finish the borders.

It was pieced March 6, 2013 and quilted November 24, 2014.  seems like i pieced a lot of these last year. 

I think it might have been a panel that i took apart and re-sewed...not sure.

I just SID around the log cabin blocks and put an X in the middle.

All the other blocks got stitching around the jars...  with something in the empty jars. on a couple of them i did a background meander.

I have been watching some Jamie Wallen videos. so, the borders got his cross-hatching. he starts at the ends and works toward the middle.

Then you leave a space in the middle and put something special in there.  i did some feathers...working from the inside out.

And feathers in the corners, too....working from the outside in.
