Slice of Pie, anyone?

Who doesn't love Kim Diehl's patterns? This block is from her Simple Graces book called Pie in the Sky.I was captivated when I first saw this block at Debra's when we (there are 3 of us in this group) met at her place this past September and she had quite a few of these blocks on her design wall. Well, you know what happens when something is just staring at you in the face? Mary (the no blog lady in our group) went out and bought the book and she has been busy collecting some FQ's to make her version. Guess what happened to me ..... yep I'm making one too! Except (you know there is always an exception with me) my background has neutral fabrics. Again, these blocks keep growing ....


.... and growing.


Oh dear me, another project! :o)


Have a great day!

I like how the churn dash has the star worked into it. Very different.

Where's the pie? LOL. I was heading over for some pumpkin or apple pie.

You always make the nicest quilts and I think this will be no exception. How big are the blocks ? Looks wonderful so far xxx

That's really pretty! Do you know, I think I prefer the pale background.....gives one's eye a resting place.

Beautiful! That will be absolutely lovely when it is complete.
