Welcome! Who is ready for a Gypsy Wife QAL giveaway?
I'm participating in this quiltalong with The Intrepid Thread's Calm colorway. This month's main block is Crazy Anne:
My Crazy Anne isn't quite as crazy as it was supposed to be. This quilt is already wild enough for me so I kept the components that make it up all the same.
It's no secret that this pattern has been troubling for many of us. I will save the griping for another post and just be grateful that this block came together at the correct size and with minimal seam ripping!
I think it fits in well with my other blocks. What do you think?
And now for the giveaway! This month the winner will receive three books: The Modern Applique Workbook, A Quilters Mixology, and Quilt Color Workshop!
So, link up and show us those Gypsy Wife blocks! I need some more motivation to keep plugging away on these! Entry will close at 11pm on June 30 and I'll choose the winner randomly.

This was an interesting block. I've received some comments that several people had not seen this particular block before.....:)
Yours looks great.

Wow! Your seam lines are beautiful. I think this is the prettiest block of the group. Love the peachy colors in this one.

Ugh, this was not my favorite round of blocks. The Crazy Anne about made me...dare I say it? Crazy! But yours looks absolutely lovely!

I do like your Crazy Anne -- I did mine similarly, keeping all four quadrants the same rather than mixing it up even more. It is a pretty crazy mix already :D
