    Just wanted to share my latest with you. I have 4 graduation quilts to make. I added a 1" border all around after I took this pic and now have to decide on what color I want for the 3" border. This is made entirely from my stash!! (batiks and Kona Snow). This one makes 2 down and 2 to go!! I plan on making all the tops first, then baste them at one time, then start the quilting process!
    I found this pattern on Robert Kaufmans site (I think). I wanted smaller blocks than the original pattern, so I drew it up on EQ-7 and I am very happy with the size. I wanted it to just be big enough for a twin bed for the dorms!

    Very colorful. I like this pattern looks quick. I have one graduation quilt started awhile ago. Needs couple of borders and then I can quilt it. TFS.
