Default Quilt used as insulation on sliding glass doors

In November I won the block of the month drawing at my guild meeting...sixteen Table for Four blocks, each 14". I loved the colors and assembled the top immediately using fabrics from my stash. And then it sat.

Recently we thought we would try using a quilt to insulate against the drafts coming through our sliding glass doors. This quilt would be a tad small (and no leftover fabric) but close enough. Using Hobbs Thermore batting, I quilted in the ditch (might get around to adding more later).

We used a tension rod (no center support) and clip-on curtain rings, so we can pull it aside when we want the daylight to come in.
