A Holiday Gift Quilt

My one SIL and I have very different tastes,

so when she went to a quilt shop with me

on vacation this summer

and mentioned that she loved a bundle of fabric and

really liked a pattern,

I jumped on it!

I cut all of the pieces for this quilt one afternoon

and began putting the blocks together.

While the fabric is beautiful,

it is too neutral for my taste.

I am pleased with how the quilt turned out, though.

My Design Wall was occupied,

so the Design Floor was put into use.

 

One thing I came to realize making this quilt....

I used a jelly roll for a lot of the blocks

and did not enjoy sewing along those pinked edges at all.

I had the hardest time getting an accurate 1/4" seam.

This one was sent off to my Long Arm Quilter

and will be ready to give at holiday time.

Happy Quilting!
