Strip Cocktail!
 

I just finished the top/back for my sister-in-law for Christmas.....although I'm going to give her a photo as the quilting won't be done by that time. The fabric is Kansas Troubles! I so love these colors~~

Enjoy!

Love your colors too. She will love it I'm sure

That's my kind of quilt! Love the pattern and the colors.

Very nice!

Thanks ladies! I know it isn't anything fancy compared to the work I've seen on this site I still am happy with it. I hadn't quilted for years and my gf gave me the bug. This is the second one I've gotten done since the middle of October. My first was a log cabin using the same fabrics. I didn't take picts of that one. I will once I get it back from the quilter.

Nice, she will love it.

In my opinion, you can't go wrong with Kansas Troubles. They ALWAYS make beautiful quilts. I LOVE IT!!!

like your colors

The Kansas Trouble line is such a great versatile set of fabric, I love the colors in it. Beautiful quilt. Great choice of color and fabric. If she don't love it I will :=) Great Job.

you did a beautiful job. about the back... folks think it's easy just to sew all the leftovers together. i tried it once and it required a lot of planning.

That is very pretty. I can't believe you've finished two quilts since October! Your sister will live this .

To do the back I graphed it out. I had the six squares left over and went from there. It does take a lot of time to plan it out. I haven't cut my scraps because of not knowing what I'll need.

That is so very beautiful, I love your colours.

Very nice pattern and fabrics.

I, too, love those colors. And I really like the back of your quilt! Too cool!

Gorgeous! Your sister will love it. Please post again after quilting? :thumbup:

Love the front, LOVE the back.

Very nice colors! I agree!

Your sister will love it ! The back gives it that extra Zip!

I really like that pattern. I've found that the simpler blocks and patterns often produce the most stunning quilts, especially when you have beautiful fabrics to show off.

Beautiful quilt! I love the thread title, too...if this wasn't a quilting board one might think you were drinking and playing strip poker?

While the top is beautiful, I absolutely love the pieced back. Recently took the plunge piecing a backing for a crib quilt.

She will love it. I also like Kansas troubles fabric colors. You did a great job.

Love Kansas Troubles.....your quilt is beautiful!

Beautiful quilt.

Very lovely...

Your pieced back is so creative it is almost like having two quilts in one.

She will love it, how thoughtful of you to make this for her. What a lucky sister-in-law.

Thanks for all the nice thoughts ladies! Oh--the title of the post is the name of the quilt pattern! The company seems to be hooked on "Strip" something or other. The quilts seem like they would go together fast as they are strips only.

very pretty colors

You should be happy with it. Gives me a warm feeling. I also look at some of the work done by members and wonder if I will ever do anything as good.

I like the back just as much as I do the front!

Nice job. She will love it.
