An Apple a Day...How About a Granny Smith?

I spent far too much time playing yesterday!  Don't you love auditioning colours for a quilt?  Oh, the possibilities are endless!  I wish I had taken pictures of all the different combinations before I FINALLY settled on this....

 I love the nice crisp colours of this...like biting into a Granny Smith!

I'm still playing...not sure if it will be a baby quilt or a lap quilt...I'm just going with it...The nine patch blocks were bought at a Garage Sale by my daughter and gifted to me!  So what the heck am I doing finishing off someone else's UFO when I have a cupboard full of my own!  You know what they say...the apple is always greener on someone else's tree...! :o)))

Have a super Saturday and Happy Stitching!~P

    With some quilts, auditioning can be the very best part! This one is looking great!

    I like the green shade, that is going to be fun to quilt, as well.

    I think it's just the attraction of a different project! The green looks good with the mixed nine patches, just the right tone.

    These nine patches are coming together nicely! The perfect green for them!

    It might be an idea to trade UFO's since the apple/grass is greener on the other side of the fence.

    Your Daughter is your enabler today. The Granny Smith looks very nice! Working on someone else's UFO is a little easier when the blocks are all done for you. Have fun quilting this one.
