Bow Tie Progress

Posted on July 31, 2019 by katyquilts

I squared up all the blocks to 6 1/2 inches. I received a few incomplete blocks with the top I purchased so I pulled out a piece of vintage green and finished those uptoo.

This is my planned layout.

I’ve decided to go with this blue for the alternate blocks.

It’s almost time to start thinking about the quilting! Have a great day!

    The blue is perfect. It takes dedication to rescue an old top and bring life to it again. Kudos!

    Choosing blue for the alternate squares gives a nod to the original Quilter who pieced the blocks with the poly cotton blue background. Great idea!
