This is my challenge quilt. We had to find colors by using our first name and then make a quilt using only those colors. I had 4 letters I could use and this is the combination I came up with. We also had to make the quilt at least 75 % log cabin or log cabin variation. I used the pineapple block for my variation. The whole quilt measures 19 X 19 and was mostly paper pieced. I drew my block and there are 43 pieces in each of the full blocks.
I'm very happy with the outcome. Hope you enjoy seeing it too.

Great Job ! And how clever using your name to get the colors - I think I would still be working on that part of it :shock: LOL
