The month of September has been dedicated to my Denyse Schmidt Modern Solids challenge for Free Spirit Fabrics. I think I've put a little too much pressure on myself for this one and designed no less than 5 quilts, trying to come up with the perfect project.

In the end, I decided to stick with my original idea. You may remember these blocks? I'm using the solids from the Modern Solids Fat Quarter box and Free Spirit Designer Solids in Pearl for the background. I've been quite busy cutting and chain piecing, but I'm thrilled with how it is coming together. I can't wait to share the final layout with you.

I have a couple prints from Denyse Schmidt's Ansonia collection planned for the backing.

I'm hoping to have a very productive week at the machine, and finish the rest of the blocks for the top. Wish me luck!
