    Here is the quilt I made for my niece's 23rd birthday. It is from "Quick Quilt Trips" by Elanor Burns. I guess you all know niece's fav color is blue! This is an easy quilt for a beginner or advanced beginner. I just wanted to share, thanks.

    This is a "Quick Trip Around the World" from the book "Quick Trip Quilts" by Elanor Burns.

    Beautiful work. Love the blue. Thanks for sharing. You can send that to my house if you change your mind and want to make her a green one!

    Beautiful quilt.... well done.... did you sew the blocks in strips, putting small nicks in both sides of the block to get the centres to match them to the next block.... I am very impressed and lovely colourings too..

    I can't believe that was easy. Matching all the seams. Beautiful work.
