Quilt in Two and a Half Days

I promised my sister Caroline that I would make a quilt top for our family reunion. My mom's family gets together every year and tie a quilt and donate it to Humanitarian Services.

I picked up the fabric for the quilt at Glad Creations on Thursday. Cheri tipped me off to batiks being in the half price and helped me figure out yardage. Thanks!

I used four fabrics for the quilt, with all but one half price. I love the zig zag lines running up and down the length of the quilt.

Making this quilt has been a nice reminder than simple quilts can be beautiful, plus they go together quicker.

Like your pics! You've made some really beautiful quilts! I don't piece the quilts I quilt, that's the part my customers do. I think it would be fine for you to use the setting for that sampler. Happy Quilting!

It looks amazing! I hope to be there to help tie it at the family reunion this year.
