Well, I have another quilt top to show you. My Godchild is getting married Sept 3. I am buying a gift but I thought a quilt would be special too. I was 15 when she was born. I can't believe she is getting married. So excited!
A couple of years ago I had the pleasure of meeting Jeni Baker at one of her fabric launch parties. She is a great girl. So sweet. I just loved all of her fabrics. She has decided not to create fabric any longer but is big into making patterns. Last year she came out with a book, Patchwork Essentials-The Half Square Triangle. I just love this book. Sometimes it is hard to decide on a pattern. And I am always looking for easy! I started this quilt on Friday. It's her pattern Opposites Attract.
I found 84 different fabrics to make 168 blocks. Sara was born in 1985 so I will use a different color for the back to give me 85 fabrics in this quilt.
I was able to finish this last night. It was a great process and I will be making more just like it. Is it sad that I have 85 different fabric scraps? I could probably make 5 of these quilts and still not run out of fabric. I will be quilting this on my home sewing machine. Wish me luck!
Blessings
Amy
