Easy and Fun Quilt



Somewhere out in cyberland I saw a picture of a quilt that I liked and the sewer said was very easy. It is from a fabulous website with hundreds of wonderful blocks.

I quickly made 2 of these quilts using lots of my scraps..I chose a neutral type background as I knew it would be very busy. I also featured a novelty type print for the center of each blocks.

I love how I have come in my quilt making journey to be able to figure out how some patterns would look in certain fabric. This is one of the quickest patterns I have ever made.

These quilts and 3 others will be journeying to a vacation home for families who have lost a loved one in the military. I heard about this wonderful project on the news which I seldom watch.

Thanks Dee for the Navy fabric. This is the second quilt I have made using it.
