A New Favorite

I have a new favorite quit.  I love the fact that I used all scraps and fat quarters I already had (except 1). I love the scrappy binding; I love the mix of creams and whites; I love the bright summery look; I love the traditional pattern; I love the quilting, oh my, I really love this quilt.

It is made from 2 1/2 inch scrap strips of colors and neutrals for the 9-patch units cut 6 1/2 inches and alternating rows of creams and whites in between the 9-patches. I added a 2 inch white-on-white border and a 5 inch cream (muslin) border so it would be big enough for our queen size bed. Backed with the same premium muslin used on the border.  The quilting is beautiful on the back too!

Beautiful.
