My Gypsy Wife progress.
I bought the pattern from Amitie in Torquay.
It is a great design by Jen.

All those different strips working well together.
It's amazing how different they look when placed with a lot of different varieties.
Getting the first sections sewn together.
This is where I'm at now..
Half the quilt is done and I think it's turning out just great so far.
Sorry the photos seem a bit hazey.. HERE IT IS AS A TOP.
I was really enjoying the sewing of this and continued until the top was done.
Thanks to the donation of the beige strips there is a lot of varieties.
There are a few mistakes but overall I am happy with the results so far.
The little navy and gold stars got mixed up and now I notice one of them should be at the centre bottom of the quilt. It can stay right where it is.
I will do another of these with scraps again... taking note of where I went wrong on this one.

What a fun orphan block project. All those blocks that would have never made it into a quilt now have a home.
Looks fantastic!
Wow, this is a really good looking version, Jo. I love the neutral strips!
Fun
Great job! All those scraps and orphans look right at home now.
Brilliant job, it looks great. Merry Christmas and have a Happy 2019. :)
Looks fantastic Jo, even if things are in the wrong place, what does it matter?
You've done an excellent job of making all those orphan blocks come together in Gypsy Wife...looks good...
