I just finished this Christmas gift for my adult son. I didn't know I was making it until a few days before Christmas, so I've been working on it as much as possible trying to get it finished. The pattern is called Boxed Squares and can be found here. I made extra blocks to make a larger version.
http://www.maryquilts.com/boxed-squares/ I used most of two bali pops in the Capuccino colorway. Bali pops are like jelly rolls, each has 40 strips of batik fabric, 2.5" wide. It's machine quilted with a variegated Sulky thread called Milk Chocolate, and has a cozy flannel back. I want to keep it! |
oh, wow, I love that! It's simple but really really nice! I wonder if it would be as nice in another colour...
|
That's beautiful.
|
Oh! Sweet!! He's going to LOVE it!!
|
Wow! Of course you want to keep it....I would too! This is really stunning. Good job and you really worked this out in a hurry, geez. Another beautiful quilt that proves a pattern need not be complicated...let the fabric do the work. Thanks for posting!

Oh my gosh I LOVE LOVE LOVE this!!! Beautiful colors!
|
I love it!

I love this...I've been wanting to do one of these. This is the one that's going to push me into it. Hope mine turns out half as nice as yours did. Thanks for sharing with us.

I am making the same block for my daughter's quilt. Or at least i think it is the same block. I think mine was called bright hopes block. I will have to get a picture and post it.

Thanks for all the kind comments everyone! :D
|
Great quilt! Perfect for so many reasons: Great fora gift to a man, but also for someone with a country decor or a very modern decor. I'm saving the pattern. (PS> Make yourself one, too!)
|
That is a beautiful quilt! I've been saving fabrics for this pattern too.
Your colour choices are just great. |
The colors are wonderful. You did a great job. He'll love it.
|
you must love him so much to be willing to give it away. Stunning quilt.
|
Very nice!!!
|
Wonder why I have a sudden craving for chocolate?
Beautiful quilt. Keep the picture handy--about once a month, somebody asks for a quilt pattern that is "manly". I think this fits the bill perfectly. Sue |
i love it

Thank you so much for that comment. I almost feel guilty sometimes for not taking the initiative to try doing harder patterns. I seem to be content with simple ones. I think I will claim that as my current motto " Let the fabric do the work ! " |
I just love what you have done with all the browns!!
|
Very nice. Great selection with the colours.
|
love it , love it, love it - Great Job !
|
wonderful quilt.... :)
|
It's beautiful. Sometimes simple patterns are the very best!!
