Default CW Quilt pattern used: Midnight Garden

The pattern is by Gerry Robinson and was featured in McCall's Quilting Mar/Apr 2012 issue.

I obtained the fabrics at a LQS in Columbia State Park, Columbia, CA and had no idea what I'd make with them. The store in Columbia features a wonderful selection of reproduction fabrics.

Thanks for all the positive feedback from everyone! A CW quilt is worth creating. I acquired a special appreciation for this era having made one. Interesting how this has happened!

Wow. I recently bought CW fabrics for a man's quilt. This quilt is great. The border fabrics that you used are terrific. I would redo my entire bedroom if this was my quilt. Congratualtions.
