I have to share this with the TQS family.  The beautiful hand-dyes used in this quilt make this quilt glow with beauty and warmth.  When I saw Ricky's 2nd in Arthurian Legend Quilt Series I was immediately drawn to these warm, elegant colors.   I purchased the kit, which made making this quilt a breeze.  All the fabric was pre-cut using an AccuQuilt cutter.  It went together with precision and having it pre-cut saved tons of time.  It was so relaxing and fun to make.  There was plenty of fabric for the borders, so I made them 7" wide, a variation from the pattern directions.  I also used all the extra pre-cut blocks and made an extra row, so my quilt has 15 x 16 rows. It finished to 81" x 85".  It is quilted with a chocolate brown Superior Threads "So Fine" on the top and a copper "Bottom Line" thread in the bobbin.  It is quilted with allover feathers to add to the elegance of Ricky's hand dyes.   Ricky's hand dyes were also used for the back of the quilt.  This beautiful quilt will greet quests in our extra bedroom.
