Not All That Wander Are Lost Mini Quilt

Hi, Y'all!!
So here is my Friday Finish.

I received the most beautiful bundle

of fabrics from Camelot Cottons.

It was Kaleidoscope.

A beautiful mix of soft

blues, aqua, purple, creams,

and some navy blue, which

made a beautiful contrast.

It really has a modern southwest feel

to the fabric.

While looking at the fabric,

I decided to try my hand at flying geese.

Here I have been quilting for

close to 5 years, and have not

made one without paper piecing it.

Sometimes, when making something

I have no plan.

I just let the fabric lead me.

This was the case with

project.  I really thought

that I would have to go back

to the drawing board,

but after I finished it,

I knew that it had to

be one of my favorites.

The quote, "Not all those who wander are lost",

is a line written in a poem by J. R. R. Tolkien.

It has to be one of my favorite quotes.

I quilted it using Aurifil 50 wt. thread

in 2311.  I used straight stitching,

and then added a few wandering lines

through them for added interest.

It is now hanging in my home.
