Design Source - Description | I saw a quilt that was a square inside a square on a cover of a quilt magazine and thought I can do that. For some unknown reason I did not buy the magazine that had the pattern probably because since I had not taken any quilting classes yet I didn’t think I would be able to read or follow the directions anyway. My husband & I went to Joanne’s fabrics since the quilt was for him at work (he is a Fire Captain) and he saw a crate with flannel fabrics all put together & I said okay you’re the one that has to look at them, if this is what you want! This was the result and he says he loves it! I had no pattern, had no idea what I was doing just knew seams had to match, so that is what I did. Wasn’t too bad & he is still using it eight years later at the fire station! Machine quilted stitch in a ditch. |
