Modern 60's Quilt
 
4 Attachment(s)
My brother wanted a quilt in 60's colors - yellow, blue, green pastels and something modern....what a challenge! This quilt looked so easy in the McCall's Quick quilts....but it was not! It's actually for a king bed so it should look a lot better on the right size bed...lol. Lots of matching patterns and even the binding to accentuate the blocks. My friend quilted it and put a modern "D" in the middle for his last name. He will be here tonight so I hope he likes it! Thanks for looking!

Nice job. It sure looks like it would be easy to make. I'm sure your brother will love it. Thanks for sharing.

I will pm you as soon as I find the copy. I made the blocks a while ago then I could not find the magazine. It is in my sewing room some where so I will have to let you know. Thanks.

That sure looks 60s to me - the Mod Squad would have loved it!

I love it! The colors, the pattern ... sooooo groovy!!

It kinda reminds me of the TV set from the show "Laugh In".

If you haven't named it yet .... "Sock it to me" comes to mind :)

You did a great job. Simple isn't always that simple.

I could not have said it better... Rowan and Martin would give it two thumbs up!
