When I saw charm packs of the Zen Chic Figures line, I took almost all o them knowing that I had mini charm packs at home that had arrived with an online order.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.believemagic.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/wpid-IMG_1879-2015-09-27-06-22.jpg\" alt=\"wpid-IMG_1879-2015-09-27-06-22.jpg\"\/><br \/>\nWhen I started piecing this quilt together, we had recently created Buckeye Beauty blocks for a bee my modern quilting group is doing.  I had made more half-square triangles than four patch blocks so I had to modify the pattern slightly.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.believemagic.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/wpid-IMG_1870-2015-09-27-06-22.jpg\" alt=\"wpid-IMG_1870-2015-09-27-06-22.jpg\"\/><br \/>\nThere are still diamonds, but he secondary pattern is broken up.  I love the overall effect.  I know quilts created from a single fabric line can seem a bit boring, but I sometimes just want to sew without thinking about if the colors or needing to cut yardage into pieces.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.believemagic.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/wpid-IMG_1880-2015-09-27-06-22.jpg\" alt=\"wpid-IMG_1880-2015-09-27-06-22.jpg\"\/><br \/>\nOn the back is a print with pink and yellow from some other fabric line.  I liked the lightness of the backing against the blues and yellows on the front.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.believemagic.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/wpid-IMG_1874-2015-09-27-06-22.jpg\" alt=\"wpid-IMG_1874-2015-09-27-06-22.jpg\"\/><br \/>\nInside is polyester batting and it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s  quilted with my usual square spirals.  Why polyester instead of my usual cotton batting? I had received several different battings from a friend and was trying them out.  The quilt feels nice and my cats really enjoyed sitting on it while in progress.  Unfortunately, we don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t really need another throw size quilt &#8211; 48\u00e2\u20ac\u009d x 64\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, so it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be available at an upcoming holiday bazaar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Earlier this year a local quilt shop was selling everything so they could move out of state &#8211; I picked up a yard or two of a few prints and continued to wade through the chaos.
