Hi all,

I just finished this hourglass quilt, and I wanted to post some photos! I made this quilt to cover my side of the bed, since I am always freezing in at night. Our duvet cover is dark blue and white, so I found fabrics to coordinate with it.

The quilt measures about 5 feet by 7 feet. I used white bleached muslin and lots of Amy Butler fabrics in her Daisy Chain Line. They were so colorful and a lot of fun to work with! I pieced the back to add interest. For quilting, the hourglasses are quilted in the ditch and the border was free-motion quilted. Enjoy!
