Inspired by Carole's quilts for the California Thomas Fire victims, I used the Perkiomen Valley Block Pattern that was posted on the Ventura Quilt Guild Website to destash and finish my Valentine fabrics into a cozy 72" x 72" quilt top for my February OMG. This is destash project #2...done!
I grabbed a quick picture of my Feb. OMG finish before work today. We had another couple inches of that light, fluffy kind of snow last night meaning this would get way too wet if I tried to take pictures outside today. But, I wanted to get my finish posted for the linky. I'll be sure to show much better pictures once it's quilted and the binding is on. But I sure do like it! |
I do however, have this cute pile of 4 1/2" squares left-over. It includes 55 light and 20 dark patterns as seen above. I thought about adding two more rows to this top but decided to add a flannel backing and use it as a comfy winter couch quilt. Okay. Be sure to leave a comment if you are interested in receiving this little bunch as a happy mail delivery to you. Congrats to follower Kristy!

ReplyDeleteHow beautiful. I’d be happy to give your scraps a new home.
ReplyDeleteThat's a lovely quilt for a worthy cause. I must see if i can find the pattern.
ReplyDeleteI love that quilt!! I don’t have many dark fabrics and would love to have them.
ReplyDeleteThat came out great! Don't enter me in your drawing, though, I have too much fabric now, LOL!!
ReplyDeleteLove the quilt top! Thanks for linking up with Elm Street Quilts One Monthly Goal and congrats on your finish.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on a very nice finish! I look forward to seeing it quilted. Please do not count me in the drawing...I just wanted to make sure I left you a comment on this fabulous finish :)
ReplyDeleteInteresting to see this pattern using one predominate color instead of scrappy. I liked Carole's, but your's is luscious too. Nice to have a Valentine quilt that's not all hearts. Not that there's anything wrong with hearts.
ReplyDeleteI'd welcome your leftover squares.
