On New Year’s Eve (day), I took the opportunity to get the studio in order, and clear out a few small projects so I could start the new year fresh.
Autumn A-Whirl was one of those projects. It just needed its borders, and the fabric had arrived mid-December, so it was time to get it done.
I put a nice wide, 6″ border of this beautiful batik on it. (and I still have a nice big chunk of it left.) It’s still a small quilt – probably a little larger than lap size – but it’s a wonderful gathering of all those gorgeous fabrics!
My Snoopervisor has thoroughly inspected it, and given his approval. Which is good – once quilted, it will cover the blanket box at the end of the bed, which is where Mr. Burton spends most nights.
Now I have two project boxes empty… what, oh what, should I start next?

I love the way the fabrics seem to fade into each other! It looks like a fairy forest.
