Default 5 yard quilt - husband's Christmas

Pattern: "Fabulous Five Yard Quilts: Fun, Fast, & Finished" - there are 5 patterns in this booklet - this is the Sew Simple Quilt - slightly modified

Fabric: Just Train Crazy by Don Morris for RJR fabrics

Backing: One of the fabrics from Just Train Crazy

Binding: backing brought over from back

Quilting - meander - done with a Juki on a frame - by a friend. (This is the first one she's done for me and ... the white thread threw me, but.. I'm getting used to it. She asked if neutral was okay, but I was thinking black as a neutral. I'll be more specific next time, but am okay with this one.

Instead of 5 different fabrics I used 4 - using two yards of the black crackle by Moda. I used the black as a sashing down the side between the border blocks and the center.

Size: Pattern says 60X70, but with the added 6 inches with the sashing it's almost square.
