i actually made two of these, {over ten years ago} and gave the second one to my friend, lori. she has kept it in amazing and pristine condition. it was a delight to my eyes to see it ‘new-to-me’ after all this time. i still adore the color combos, and of course, the batik fabrics are something i have always gravitated towards. in fact, if it wasn’t for batiks, i doubt i would have become a quilter! and those brighter colors have always spoke “come hither” to me!
love those sweet ol’ traditional log cabin roses in this quilt.
i was so new to quilting… and it is truly simply quilted, in a soft, meandering line that circles the roses/centers. i did use a metallic thread in the roses, and i don’t remember what i quilted the rest of the area with…although it was very simply done in wavy, “straightish” lines radiating out in equal-like angles from the center flowers. {two pics above}
it was just another great way to learn free motion, on a lap-size quilt or picnic-size quilt top without a whole lot of stress, i might add!
this is the super-cute pattern, designed by caroline kearney for studio 55:
i don’t know if you can buy the pattern anymore, but i think i need to make it again! {gotta put it on that “list!”} it was fun to make, and oh-so-charming. what a great pattern i sure loved as a new quilter. go for what you love! {always a good recommendation!}
enJoy!
