I finally finished Marcie's Williamsburg Medallion top! Now to figure out how to quilt it! I flipped the way the HST border went to give it more light space and then a more definate darker outline. Doesn't it look fun! I had told Marcie the other day that this pattern would make an awesome baby quilt if you had the right baby fabrics, don't you think!
And here is a Civil War block I made last night called Panic. Ummmmm do you see anything wrong with it! A lack of sleep, too much work and stress and this block said "PANIC"! I thought about leaving it, but ummm, I couldn't do it! So I did fix it! Below are a few more blocks I got done!

The Williamsburg medallion is beautiful!
Oh Dawn, your Wmb is fabulous! I love the colors and the contrast. I teach that class tonight and want to show yours and Libby's and Karen's. They are great!
Hi Dawn
I am a fellow quilter and I found you when I googled Gwen Marston. I am taking a week long workshop with her and Freddy Moran next week and I am so excited. After reading your blog about your class with her I am even more excited!! Isn't it a great life being a quilter? another day when I have more time I'm coming back to visit and read some more of your posts. Hope you get to work on a quilt today. Rhondi
I just love what you've done. And I couldn't agree more about being a great baby quilt - it's just the right size and everything *s*
I think that would make a wonderful baby quilt...and who says it has to be baby colors!
As always - love the civil war blocks.
I agree, the pattern for the Williamsburg Medallion would make a great baby quilt! I even like your version for a baby. Very, very nice!
Your Williamsburg Medallion is beautiful! It would make a darling baby quilt in the right colors!
Your quilt turned out beautiful! I love it. You are really churning out the Civil War Blocks, too!You rock!
I really think your Williamsburg Medallion is beautiful. Don't worry about the other. I remember painting a mural on the wall of my son's room when he was a little boy. I was finishing it very late with a bluebird in the air. I kept thinking something wasn't right, but it wasn't until the next morning that I saw I had painted a bird with three wings. These things happen! They are some of the fun of life.
Yup, gorgeous..just like I thought it would be finished!!
The blocks look great also, and I'm glad you fixed it...looks better that way..balanced. Hugs, Finn
I agree that would make a good baby quilt if done in baby fabrics. You did a very nice job. I love the fabrics in your CW blocks.

CW block mistake? Honestly I did not realize it until I read further down (hehe), but I'm glad it was easy fix for you.
How did I miss this earlier? You cracked me up with "panic." Thanks for sharing that. It's fun. And funny. Bottom blocks - love 'em.
And yes, Medallion would make a great baby quilt. I'm tempted.

I love this medallion top - I'm always a sucker for medallion style quilts and I agree flipiing those outer triangles really gives it definition - lovely - wouldn't it be gorgeous in light blue and white for a baby boy?
Oh, Dawn, Your Medallion quilt is simpy gorgeous! Love it, Love, it!
What a fun to see your version and Libby's then Marcie's the original. You did a wonderful job!
and you are right, It's very good idea for a baby quilt.

But I love it. Won't you use this block as an additional for your CW quilt??
Love your medallion quilt, leave it to you to put a different spin on it, you are soooo creative!
You have such a gift for selecting colors and fabrics. The Medallion is bright and cheerful and very "Pennsylvania."
