Start of medallion quilt

Here is my medallion quilt so far:


Just 2 half in borders completed. The background fabric will make another half inch border after I have squared the project up with a row of triangles top and bottom.

I have also finished 3 more Civil War quilt blocks.





Just one more block to make and I will have caught up.

I have found a new fabric line that will be coming out before the end of the year. If you like Margo Krager's chintz centre panels, you will probably like this!  :)

Happy sewing. :)

    The chintz Repro is beautiful, I think the medalion will be an exciting project too. I'dheard about the John Hewson fabric, I think I need some.

    Oooh, I can't wait to see this quilt in progress. Your fabrics are so beautiful! Are you doing the medallion quilt-a-long with Meridithe and Jan? (And guess what? The Ruby FINALLY arrived and it's already winging it's way to you -- keep an eye on the post!)

    Can't wait to follow your progress, Miriam! I bought one of the larger panels, but I think I'll have to get this one too, as it was my second favorite.

    Your medallion quilt is off to a great start. I bought one of the panels too but will probably just save it.
    Excited about the Winterthur Hewson fabrics, it was amazing to see the original at Winterthur 2 weeks ago - heaven.
