    Default Charming Bowties

    I made this with five packs of charms from Connecting Threads purchased on clearance, plus black fabric. I cut one set of charms (24 in a pack) into four 2.5" squares and used two per block which used two charms and two black squares. I sewed black buttons in the middle of the black shapes. This is for Project Linus!

    It is a beautiful modern quilt. I love that pattern of blocks to use with the black. The bright colors go well with the black.
