Reflecting Pool

is the name of the Kaffe Fassett quilt I'm making for a friend.  I finally began cutting and must admit, it was somewhat intimidating to get started...a bit leery of making cutting mistakes on such fine fabric!

But thanks to my quilting guru for support and advice, I can move forward with confidence and even enjoy the ride!

Last night after our guests left, I had some time to sew up the first 12-patch blocks.

 

And recently cutting my piece-work baby teeth on leetle bitty 4-patches, these 4-1/2" by 3-1/2" rectangles are a cinch.

And the colors are brilliant!
