Another rosette
Here's the 4th rosette from The new hexagon millefiori quilt, by Katja Marek. This one is in colors that represent Cape Cod in the autumn, so, oranges and golds and rusts with a touch of green. Again, all done by hand in the English paper piecing technique (EPP), which is slow and time-consuming and labor intensive, but very pleasant to do while sitting on the sun porch. The colors on my monitor are pretty true to life.
Next rosette, which is a small one, will be about the ice cream parlors and taffy shops all over the Cape.

Finished!
I've picked out possible fabrics for rosette #2, which is not connected to #1. These browns and forest greens suggest the trees and parks of the Cape: that scruffy green of the leaves with those warm browns. I probably won't use all of these. We'll see. I'll pick as I go along.
