I love the quilt. Did you have directions to make it into the fitted bedspread? I really like that concept.

I like the Hawaiian quilts but know I would most likely not do it by hand. It is good to see one done by machine. It encourages me to go ahead and give it a try. The fitted bedspread is a great idea. Love your quilt.

Thank you for all your kind comments.

I did not have a pattern for the fitted corner. I took the front and back fabric (no batting), sewed it right sides together and turned it. Then I sewed it right through the top of the quilt, up each side onto the corner. It ended up being 18" wide and 23" long. It makes it very easy to make the bed because we just pull it up until it stops in the corners.
