Another Great Finish... The front and the Back!

This is Mary's other paper pieced Quilt, Black Eyed Dahlia, which was the overall winner at our quilt show.  Her intricate paper pieced quilts are show stoppers!

Peggy showed blocks she is working on with someone else's 2" strips that she inherited.  It is using Bonnie Hunter's Scrappy Trips around the world in a sort of watercolor design of lights and darks.  She was seeing if there was interest in a class or lesson doing this method.
