canada 150 quilt
 

This quilt has only 72 of the 156 blocks made to commemorate Canada's 150th birthday. This one is complete. There is one more this size and a large one with 156 6 inch blocks, bordered and ready to quilt. Just ran out of steam and Christmas is looming with lots left to do.[ATTACH=CONFIG]585267[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]585268[/ATTACH]

beautifully done. i'm tired just thinking of how many blocks you made :)

Beautiful, where did you get the pattern?

Glorcour ... Congratulations!
My goodness ... you did double the blocks.
I'll look forward to seeing all three quilts together in a future post.

I bet you learned a lot about the significant women in Canadian history.

I didn't know about this quilt project until it was well on the way and really would have liked to have followed along with the weekly block releases. Still thinking of ordering the CD with the patterns and stories, but it just wouldn't be the same, not doing it in the 150th year. But yes, probably still will, especially for the historical info!

Red & white quilts always capture my attention and this one sure did in a big way. It's beautiful. All those little blocks! Impressive.

Great job! Love all the Canada 150 stuff we've been seeing this year....reminds me I need to get going on the stack of fabric I bought to make a Canada 150 Quilt -

Very nice!

Beautiful!

Congratulations on your quilt...that’s a huge accomplishment. It is beautiful.

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!!

Thank you for sharing your gorgeous quilt!

What a dedicated undertaking! Your quilt is beautiful and will certainly be an heirloom! I was in Canada for some of the commemoration and it was a wonderful celebration. We attended events in Ottawa.

It looks great!!

Wonderful tribute to your country.

Just beautiful. You did a great job and......Happy Birthday neighbor!

Beautiful quilt!!

This is a terrific quilt! I know what you mean about Christmas looming. I'm trying to finish one out right now, so I can get on with the rest of the STUFF!

Beautiful quilt and nice work.

Very pretty front and back. I printed the instructions for each block but haven't begun yet. I'm thinking it probably won't be completed in 2017!! You did a lovely job!

Thank you for sharing. Wish I had known about this while it was in progress but I will order the CD now. Beautiful quilt.

Awesome quilt! What a keepsake!

Lovely, stunning piece of work. Sure to be an heirloom for your family.
