Becky's Drunkard's Path wall hanging

Hey Everyone,
     I think there are certain patterns, as well as colors that we gravitate to. I for 1 love the Drunkard's Path pattern. Becky has chosen to do a modern placement with beautiful, rich colored batiks. She also did a great job on the curves.
     If you haven't tried curved piecing yet, give it a try. You may find it's not as hard as you think. Enjoy the pics. K

Quilted Pillow

Hey Quilters,
     This is the pillow that goes with the 1000 Pyramids quilt. It wasn't my plan to follow the quilt with the pillow, it just happened. I guess it's all in the timing. I had put this pillow top together in December but kind of got busy and forgot about it until recently. I pieced it using scraps leftover from the quilt. The border is my favorite fabric at the moment. I just love it. Anyway, it was supposed to be a simple pillow, sew front to back, done. Then, I got this idea to put a strip around the middle. Here's how it came out.
