What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

I think that is the name of the fabric in this quilt. I know I bought it quite some time ago, maybe 10 years?

Not totally sure.

I found a pattern designed for layer cakes, but also altered for charm packs. That was what I had in my pile and thankfully there was enough to make this quilt. It ended up at 40 X 54 inches.

From Scraps to Fabulous

The perfect way to practice improv quilting and put a dent into the scrap ...
