Decided on what quilt to make
1 Attachment(s)
I've been thinking about what quilt to make for my niece and her husband. He is an Army Ranger and when I asked her what type of quilt she might like she said she liked my patriotic one. Well... that one is mine. ;) She likes the muted tones with red, white, and blue. I have a FQ set of Brannock and Patek "Remembrance" that would be perfect.
I saw a pattern online last night that I really liked, Two Step by Miss Rosie's Quilt Company. It is only 80" x 80" so I modified and added the borders and a section on the top and bottom to make it 96"x 108". I wanted a bed sized one, not a barely-bed sized. I ordered the pattern even though it was easy to figure out in EQ and ordered 5 yards of the blue with little stars from the Remembrance collection for the borders (luckily found it on sale for $6.25 when everwhere else was $9.50).
This will be a good one to use the printed HST strips from the Print and Sew program too.
