Harper's Garden

A year or so ago, I won a layer cake called Harper's Garden from Green Fairy Quilts on the Terrific Tuesday Giveaway on Melissa's blog. I couldn't decide what to do with it.

Recently, while perusing blogs in a linky party, I came across Susie's Scraps which has great patterns for scrappy quilts. One of the patterns was the Arrowhead Block which uses 10" squares. I really should have been working on another project but I followed the directions and made 2 blocks.

To stretch the cake fabrics, I'm pairing them with Kona fabrics from the solids tub. These two blocks were made with the spring green fabric left from the string X quilt. This is in keeping with my determination to try to use more interesting background fabrics.

This isn't a stop everything and make quilt, it's a waiting until its turn quilt. The arrowhead blocks were fun to make and didn't take long at all to make.
