We did a quilt almost exactly like this one in a charity quilt group from one of my quilt guilds - except we used all smaller squares instead of adding the larger ones. Just couldn't believe how it worked out. I really like this version though because it makes its own border and looks fantastic.
It's going into my bag of tricks as I've become the "leader" of a charity group in my other quilt guild (I belong to 2) and am always on the lookout for easy-to-sew but looks-great quilt patterns. And I will be sure to pass along Lyn's pattern to the first charity quilt leader where i first learned about thisn really cool design.
Thanks so much, fabric lover, for ths link.
