Jane Stickle Quilt: C-7

Jane Stickle block C-7Block number/name: C-7 “Megan’s Mountain Laurel”

Date completed: May 8, 2009

Number of pieces: 45

Notes on block: Slowly but surely… it took a few days to finish this one, a little bit each day. I was surprised at how well I was able to do on it, what with the bazillion pieces and all. This is one of those blocks that once I saw it, I knew just what fabric to use in it. That is a rare event for me! It’s funny because I was thinking about setting this fabric aside altogether because it is such a funky yellow-y green color. But I’m so glad I didn’t! I think it looks spiffy.

I noticed the name after it was all put together. My sister-in-law (who is traveling about in New Zealand at the moment-- lucky girl!) is named Megan. She called today to chat, just as I was working on this block. How cool is that? Serendipity.
