I have been out of stock of patriotic quilts (with the exception of the ones I am keeping). This month I decided to start on the next round of quilts. They will be red/white/blue ones. This quilt was made using a pattern from the Make It Christmas with 3-Yard Quilts from Fabric Cafe. I have used this pattern before and knew that the panels could be cut to fit the large squares in the pattern. The cow panels were Heritage U.S.A. by Grace Popp for Studio E Fabrics. They were the perfect size for this project. I had some of the white on white fabric left on a bolt so it went into this project as the background. I backed it with a soft red flannel fabric.
I machine quilted a pantograph called Scrollwork from Urban Elementz. I did use this design on the last quilt and since it was already set up on the longarm I decided it would look nice on this quilt as well. You just never know what I am going to do with a quilt design!
The quilt finished at approximately 63" x 87" (twin size). I machine bound this quilt. I used the blue grunge fabric for the binding. I do love a grunge fabric!
Happy Valentine's Day to all my crafty friends. May your day be filled with kindness & love.
