I fell in love with the border of Judy Niemeyer's Island Sunset and always wanted to do my own version. So here it is! It's a 3.5" CP (Crazy Patch) block that takes 6 min. to do. It was fun. There are interesting fabs in it (I'll show closeups). A final 3.5" white border goes on next so wanted to take pics before it got too big to handle. I'll be working on a pieced back for it next. This lap quilt will go to a child/teen of a tornado victim in Missouri.
Here's a link to my inspiration piece, 2nd quilt pic down:

Also, I recently made a mini from a vintage calendar whose scraps went into this quilt also. Here's the link in case you missed that thread:

I just love this CP and hope you enjoy it too! Thanks for looking! :-D :-D
