My daughter finished piecing this quilt top Sunday made from Marcus Brothers QOVC fabrics. Very patriotic with vibrant reds! The center is a panel, which makes the quilt look complicated, but it was rather easy to piece. It measures about 62"x82". A nice lap size quilt.
It is available at TOWQS.
And besides keeping an eye on those adorable eagles in Iowa...did you see how big their feet are getting!...I pieced another block for my 1880 Barbara Bucher Snyder Sampler quilt.
Goose in the Pond Variation
It may be my favorite so far. I had to resort to paper foundation piecing it though, and will spend some time in the next few weeks figuring out how I can transfer the pattern to followers. Others have done it, so I know it can be done.
I am off to a tropical location next week, so I will catch up with everyone in a few.
Well done! How long has your DD quilted?
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful block and I can see why it needed to be PP.
Enjoy your trip!
