I've been working on getting my brown and blue blocks into a top and now they are! I started this quilt at least two, maybe three years ago. I decided it needed to be bigger so I put it on the back burner for a while while I gathered more fabrics. This is earmarked for Quilts on Valor in Colorado. I still need to piece the backing but I'm tickled to have found enough fabric in my stash to make a backing for it. Hum, the blues are less vivid in person. This is "Shoe Boxes" by Atkinson Designs.

I'm late posting but I'll be linking up with Patchwork Times. Take a look at what's on design walls across the Internet. (Oops, I don't see a Linky Party at Judy's today. If it gets added I'll go back to linking mine with her. So, I closed the browser page and then opened a new one. Surprise, there was the linky party so go party! )
Happy Quilting All 
Your tea gathering sounds like fun. Love the new old quilt top. Cool.
