Table Quilt Top Together


I am under the impression that the block I used to make this quilt top is called the "siggy block". However, I assumed that if it was a siggy block, then there would be signatures in it... And there are no signatures in these blocks... None. So are they still siggies? I do not know.

I used an old thrift shop 100 % cotton bed sheet as my base fabric. It gives the top a very soft texture. However, once I had pieced the siggy blocks (?) and put them all together, I had a tough time liking it. It was so bright white and lacked warmth. Soooo, I tea-stained the centre and then added the grey and soft pink borders! It is so much softer and warmer looking now. And I like it, thank goodness. I now have to figure out what I'm going to do for the backing. But that is for another day... Have a lovely one!
