After I made my first quilt, my DH wanted me to make a quilt for him . He picked out the fabric from my new little stash. I thought I'd try the Fun and Done quilt as you go method. It wasn't so fun. I felt pressured from my inexperience and wanting to make a really nice quilt for my DH. Did I mention I don't work well under pressure? Anyway, he loves his quilt. I named it "Bear Trails" because I call him my Bear, and it looks like pathways or trails. Perhaps I should have named it "Bare Trials".
I'm making a pillow to match. I gave him the quilt on our wedding anniversary. Can't wait to start on the next quilt!

Wow! You guys are fast in replying! Thank you so much for the compliments. It gives me incentive to start new ones. It does match the manly den sofa, doesn't it?! It is the Fun and Done pattern called Woven Wonder Quilt from Prairie Sky Quilting.

The label. I hope you can see it.

Great quilt, I love the pattern as well, don't think I've seen it before. It's a pattern to remember (as if I don't have enough patterns to remember for ....... whenever LOL)

No, it is not my design. It is a Fun and Done quilt as you go called "Woven Wonder Quilt" by Prairie Sky Quilting.

Thank you! I find the hardest part is picking out the fabric and the color. But I have so much to learn!

Maggie_Sue 05-03-2011 04:36 PM

Wow that is great and only your 2nd quilt!! Great job!!!

GreatStarter 05-03-2011 04:38 PM

Wow, I love it. Now you scared me, I just bought a "Fun and Done" pattern hoping I would actually get a quilt completed. I manage to get quilt tops completed, but have trouble quilting them. I was hoping by doing a quilt-as- you-go project I would get one completed.

Oh, you will get it done. Most people like the quilt as you go. So do I now that I have finished it. That's the reason I chose it, too, was because of the difficulty quilting with no longarm machine.

Tootsie 05-03-2011 04:46 PM

Great pattern! You did a wonderful job :-)

Latrinka 05-03-2011 05:07 PM
