it's the boston commons scrappy style! the photo doesn't really do it justice but i think it's still gorgeous. truly a beautiful scrappy quilt. there are about 1000 little squares in this top that the pattern classifies as twin/full. no way would i ever make one any larger than this. there won't be another border on it at all, just bind it with white, i think. i'm not big on adding borders just to make quilts larger. yes, that's my hawaiian pillow up in the corner. that led me down a slippery path to wanton excess, meaning the bed size hawaiian i now have in progress but oh what fun. ***** it's a beautiful pre spring day here in maine, temps around 40 and sunny, a true portent. i've spent most of this day (2 pm right now now) adding the last border section on the above and also putting together another flimsy that i hope to finish today. that'll be two in one day!

Your quilt top is stunning. I would love to do one like that - the perfect scrappy! How do you plan on quilting that? I would imagine that hand quilting with all those seams will be difficult.
ReplyDeleteIs this from a purchased pattern or available on line? It is a pattern I would really like to make.
Great job, Grace!! Beautiful eye candy. But now you've added it to all our 'to do' lists too!! LOL!
