I have my Zen Garden with the white background up right now. Here are 11 blocks completely done, and I have the other 9 ready for the side strips. I'm using a jelly roll called Ticklish by Me & My Sister for Moda and I think it is so fresh and fun!
I really like this pattern. It's by Little Louise Designs and I'm also making it with a dark background. The really cool thing about the quilt is that since it only it takes 20 strips 2 1/2" x width of fabric (half a jelly roll), I can make both quilts and only have to come up with background fabrics. YEAH!! This is the second of her patterns that I've made (Gateway to Paradise was the first), and it also only used half a jelly roll. I have a couple other patterns by Little Louise Designs that I'm going to make, so be on the look out for them soon! I think these will make great classes. That's what Zen Garden is for so I better get busy and get it (them) done. :-)
I have a couple of table runners that are not technically on the design wall, but since I made them today and they are ready to be quilted, I'm lumping them in with today's design wall post. These are made using the Easy Striped Table Runner pattern that I've mentioned before. Super simple, and super cute!
Click here to see a picture of a couple of other table runners I've done using this pattern. I made at least five of these table runners in November and I think I forgot to take pictures of most of them. Darn! I do have this one and I really like it. I think there is one more at Country Fabrics because it was hung up for display to advertise my class. I think I should check and see if it is still there.

Very cute! I'm broken down on Easy Street myself, and am not posting a design wall at all. Irecognised Milan, Used to live near Clevland, in Lakewood,& Avon Lake... Now I'm in SE Ohio, near Cincinnati.
Zen Garden looks great with the bright colors and white!
I love Zen Garden. Would make a very cute baby quilt and would sew up fast!
The Zen garden is great. It looks like a fun quilt to make and the Me and My Sister fabrics are perfect.
So pretty, zen garden. I am loving the table runner, I have made several of them and it is magic every time!
Oh I like it too!!!
