Hawaiian Churn Dash and ... Finished!!! ( or not) Friday!!!

 I came to a decision... and I followed it, and now I have a Finished top.. and many others on the way!!!


I will start with the finish.. I always like that part better anyways!!

You may remember this photo ( below) ? From one of my Design wall posts?
I had already made a Quilt with all my Hawaiian 5 inch squares.... Dash to Hawaii


But I still had 5 inch squares left over - so I started making churns as leaders and enders until I got tired, and then I made 9 patches , until I got tired... then I tried to see what I had... and I got dizzy....


I stepped back for a minute and started playing with teal sashing... and now!!




I have a finished top!!! Whoop Whoop.... Oh! I will tell you.... I wasn't sure about the border since it was a different shade of teal that the sashing... but! 

It WORKS!!!  I tell you -- It does ;-)




now on to see what I can do with all of those Hawaiian Nine patches!! Well, don't laugh - I already know - I have a plan.... so stay tuned....

You are having too much fun with those Hawaiian prints! And what a fun bunch of quilts you are making. Whoop, whoop is right!

And of course teal goes with teal!!!

Kate said...

The 2 different teals do work. It's such a bright and happy quilt. Looking forward to seeing what you do with the 9 patches.

The border looks great with it and laugh about having a plan; no way! Have fun finishing up the 9-patch blocks, too. :)

One of the prettiest Churn Dash quilts I have ever seen. Yes to that beautiful border as well!

Vicki W said...

Oh, that turned out very pretty!

Nann said...

There's just enough white in the border print to pick up on the white in the blocks. The teals/blues go together very well. Now show us those nine-patches!

Anne-Marie said...

It looks cool. I like that outside border.

The teal works perfect with the Hawaiian fabric. The quilt is a lot of fun and pretty.
