I've tried to use pieced backs, but I always run into trouble. During quilting, the front & back shift, and I have to trim away at the edges afterward. Of course, by then I've lost the pattern on the pieced back, and it looks all wonky. :(

GRMA 33 - That is cool! But try as I might - I can't find the pattern in any of the Quick Quilt 2010 magz. Could you post the dimensions of squares and strips please? I can figure out how to put it together. I think all here would appreciate it.. Thanks for posting your "BEAUTY"!

I love it!!!

I love pieced backs. I have done Christmas quilts and included door panels into the back. But I did find some long arm quilts have trouble with the seams going vertically

Double WARM!!!!! Because the love that went into making the quilt will keep your friend warm!

Love it - love it - love it.

Functional, practical, frugil, and looks fantastic. It doesn't get any better than that.

That is a great quilt!

Wouldn't this be a great pattern to use wit family pictures in the center squares? Would really be neat for a family reunion quilt.

I like 2 sided quilts. They add so much to a quilt.

I love it and the pieced back is a great idea too. Very nice colours and your friend will be delighted.

Thanks sew much! Looks fun and EASY!!! Yours is just lovely. You must have lots of flannel laying around? lol !
