My first machine pieced quilt......

When I was in Holland some weeks ago i took a private class to learn cutting fabric and piecing it by my sewingmachine. I learned a lot of things. And  what was most important I lost my fear for starting a machine pieced quilt.
In Quiltmania number 46  I found this one, so gorgeous. And I bought months ago a lot of beautiful Japanese fabric on Etsy, also Japanese kimono silk here and here.For the small squares I used kimono silk fabric.
When I made this picture I only had 5 blocks, now there are 13 blocks ready.




And this is the picture in the Quiltmania, isn't it lovely?

    Oooh, your fabrics are so beautiful, as I'm sure your quilt will be when it's finished (very soon by the sound of things!)

    Such a beautiful combination of fabrics! Things go along much more quickly when using a sewing machine, eh?
