I could not find a panel for my Jane Austen center, so I decided to try and make one. This is my first attempt. I will see how it works out and then if it doesn't work, I will do another! this is four panels and I will give each one a test drive.
My father told me that his grandmother, Minnie, used to make quilts. They were not art, he assured me, just made up of snippets of old clothes , so as not to waste fabric and used to keep warm. He remembers one, he says, all in grays and blacks and plaids. Not art, he says, not meant to be beautiful. Sounds like beauty to me. Maybe even art...

What a great idea! I can't wait to see your JA top with the centre medallion!
Well they look pretty :) Looking forward to seeing what you finally decide and seeing in your JA top.

Very striking...I couldn't say what was best but will be checking to see what you picked. Your artist's eye will serve you well in making the decision.
How pretty! I will be watching this one take shape.
They are all lovely. I can't wait to see the finished quilt.
All the best,
Susan
