    Just wondering if you can share the pattern name of this quilt. I am going to make my daughter & son-in-law a quilt and she just loves the look of this quilt. Thanks

It is approximately 100” square, for her queen sized bed, with 25 14 inch squares, a crazy patch border and a crazy patch binding. I think it is lovely, but she hasn't seen the finished project. I also made matching pillow shams. I got most of these batiks at the Connecting Threads warehouse sale here in Columbus. This is only my 5[SUP]th[/SUP] or 6[SUP]th[/SUP] quilt, plus a few table runners and table cloths. Hope she likes it.

    I did go back and embroider the seams of all of the patches. I learned a lot about my sewing machine doing these. Lots of thread changes on this quilt.

    I used adding machine tape to make this crazy patch inner border with scraps left over from the squares.

    Thanks for looking, hope you enjoy the pictures

    I got carried away and even made a crazy patch binding. But I love the look of it.

    I can see why it took nearly a year to make. Lots of work in it. But it all paid off, it is a gorgeous quilt. Thanks for sharing it with us.

    So very vintage-looking and the embroidery stitches are very sweet, she will keep this forever! What a labor of love, I think she may cry tears of joy!
