Tortilla Soup Quilt

This week I have been sewing and trimming 200 HST from my Gypsy Bandana fabric and some linen I recently purchased.  I've never worked with linen before but have always admired quilts that incorporated a little linen for texture.  This is what I learned:  it is harder to work with...harder to cut, harder to press, etc.  And when I picked up a square of linen it felt like I was picking up a fresh corn tortilla--thick and weighty.  Thus, the name of the quilt.

I added in a few aquas and some scraps from my stash.  I'll let you know how it progresses....
