The fabric is Nature's Chorus by April Cornell, I've had a layer cake and some yardage of it for a quilt for Gram and I was just searching for the right pattern. When I saw the 2 + 1 quilt pattern/tutorial over on Samelia's Mum I knew I'd found it. That pattern actually makes a twin sized bed quilt so I scaled the size down a bit for a lap/couch quilt. I was pleased with the piecing on the front - everything lined up! And then I used the 2 extra blocks I had to piece the back and I loved it. I think the birthday girl did too! We're saving her a rain check on cupcakes until she comes to visit :-)
Happy Birthday Gram (and Great Grammie) - we love you BUNCHES!!
beautiful quilt, Happy Bday Gram!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet gift, Darcy. It's beautiful! I love the diagonal quilting lines.
