It is a great piece to learn on and if you need a quick quilt it is super easy to use with fat quarters from your stash. Its like your fall-back cassorole when you have unexpected guests. So it isn't gourmet, it still has a place and a purpose. My hubby wanted me to whip up a quilt for a sick SIL. I did it in one day. I figured it beats a 9 patch for looks. Has enough style to not looked tossed together but still the ease of tossing it together.
Great little pattern. I love Atkinsons
