BQ Pattern with Travel and Photography Theme Quilt Finished!
 
2 Attachment(s)
Many of you know I travel a lot on photography trips around the world and wanted to make a quilt for the photographer and his wife who organize and run these trips. So I found a couple of fabrics with camera and travel themes and put them all together in a quilt using the BQ pattern that I found out about from others on this Board. It was a super fast quilt to piece. I pieced the back free-style with leftovers and more photography fabric. Now I just need to get it in the mail!

Oh, I love this! I have a Texas themed quilt to make that would do great with this pattern!

Very nicely done. Your fabric selection is terrific. I had to come up with something special for a friend out of the camera fabric you used for the backing. I made a hexagon mug rug. LOVE BQ patterns. They can look very stunning and are so quick to be pieced together.

Great quilt.

I just used the camera fabric for a lap quilt for my SIL who also goes on photography trips. In a bad movie it would turn out you both go on the same excursions and know each other LOL.

Love the quilt and everything about it! Did you make up the pattern yourself or can you share how to get it?

Tessagin, the pattern name is BQ Quilt (I think it stands for Big Quilt, but not sure!) and is published by Maple Island Quilts, they have a website where you can buy this and many other variations of this pattern. Very quick and easy to piece together, I did it in one day. The back was my own design however, just piecing together scraps of fabric and the other black and white camera fabric I found. This is a great quilt for any large print focus fabric, and also makes a great pattern for T-shirt quilts. Barb in Louisiana, a member of this Board, put me onto this pattern and I now use it a lot!

I love the wonderful fabrics used in your lovely quilt. A great pattern to show off the fabrics.
