    This quilt is from my Second Favorite book called "Material Obsession two"
    I used my Favorite designer fabrics by AMY Butler from her "LOVE" collection.....
    The directions on the quilt were actually wrong..I had to refigure all of the math...but I just LOVE the way it turned out. It is to big for the area on my floor...so I could not get a good picture...I added the small polka dot border and the piano key border as the original didn't call for any borders.

    Awesome design and colors. I will have to check the book out. Looks like it is full of great ideas. Good job.

    I love that fabric line too. That's too bad about the directions:< I hope you didn't lose any fabric over it.

    Charismah...This is a super quilt for using up scraps!! I have been trying to get all mine organized into lights and darks...I have a tendency to just throw them all in a bag untill it gets full....I have two bags now and have been trying to decide how to use them.
    Your quilts are always so pretty! I know when you get it quilted it will be even more beautiful!! :D :thumbup:

    Hi Ditter,
    Actually she used scraps in the book when she made hers.....I actually used scraps as well.....but had to buy more because of the borders...I have noticed that even when I make scraps quilts I tend to STILL have to buy fabric...to finish a quilt! Poor me...right? LOL
