A finished quilt top and more Sunday bread baking

Finished another quilt top in between responding to emails from my boss.  I love these Erin McMorris fabrics and like the way the finished quilt looks.  The pattern is from Happy Hour by Atkinson Designs and is easy and fun to make.  After cutting the 15" blocks, there are pieces left over that can either be used in a table runner or another quilt.  I think I'll make the other quilt.  The one in the book has white strips in between strips of the scraps from these blocks.  This, and the fact that I need backing and binding fabric for this quilt  means I will have to go shopping in order to finish!  I don't have any Erin McMorris left and, since it is an older line, imagine I will have to buy something different for the binding.  I think a nice solid orange, pink or green should do it.

Looking at the pictures I took after finishing, I notice things that I don't see when at the quilt itself.  The orange and the leafy pattern really stand out and seem to be more concentrated towards the centre.  This is partially because I didn't get all of it in the picture.  There are some of these fabrics on the edges so it likely balances things out.  I also more easily see those spots where 2 blocks containing the same fabrics are quite close to each other.  These don't stand out as much in the "live" version, which is good, since the "live" version is really all that matters at the end of the day.

I also made more bread.  I really like baking bread and it tastes so much better than the generic store bought kind.  Today's was 100% whole wheat and smells wonderful.

Next up on the quilt front will either be something with a big pile of flannels I'm looking at right now or maybe a table runner from some olive and fig fabrics I bought ages ago or I'm at the collar of my Olympic sweater so could get a spurt of energy going in that direction too.  So many choices, so little time.
