I made this quilt after watching a "Simply Quilts show episode. I took fabric from my stash that matched a love seat I had at the time. Alex Anderson instructed us to cut a bunch of different fabrics into 2 inch squares, then put them in a bag and shake them up. Then pull out a square and lay it out in a square grid, as they are picked. I only changed 3 squares positions once I had done this. I then expanded the quilt, by adding the larger squares, rectangles and an inner border. To finish, I hand quilted each square with a different design for each fabric.
This quilt has been hanging over our changing T.V.'s for the last 13 or 14 years (Date made uncertain). I've made quite a few quilts since then, many more technically challenging, but this is one of my favorites.
