This challenge was simply a size restriction. The quilt had to be bigger than a bread box, (defined as 16″ x 8″.) I’m on the road again, and sewing in a makeshift studio without my favorite machines. I started a quilt and like it enough that I didn’t want to rush the finish, especially in an imperfect sewing environment. So, I rushed out this 37″ x 37″ baby quilt. I pillow-cased the top and quilted it by hand-tying a few spots with thread. I’m pretty sure I’ll be machine quilting over this when I get home.

In the meantime, I’m considering writing this up as a free pattern. If there is enough interest to make it worth the time, I’ll do so. Watch the PQ website– quilt 99. If it gets 150 or more votes, I’ll be creating that free pattern.

Live Well. Quilt Well.
