This was a fun and easy quilt to make - all 3.5" center squares with 3.5" and 6.5" strips around them. I am not sure of the fabric lines for the center squares as they were precut fat quarters from my LQS. The solids are Kona Bright Pink and Kona Medium Grey. The backing fabric is Connecting Threads Matsuri line in the Cherry Blossoms print; Tea Rose colorway.
Binding done with Kona Bright Pink.

ReplyDeleteThanks Jane!!
DeleteI love the straight line quilting! How did the Connecting Threads fabric for the backing? You were worried about the different weight of it.

Thanks Sandi! The fabric worked out beautifully. I only had to adjust my bobbin tension a little bit, but using a walking foot for the straight line quilting helped with that too.
DeleteWhat a beautiful quilt... love it...so will your family when they see it.

ReplyDeleteLove this. Great colorss. I know these square- in -a -square quilts are easy, but aren't they fresh and bright? She will treasure this. By coincidence, I just made one using Kona Bubble Gum. http://m.flickr.com/lightbox?id=6942654132
