Thanks to all of you for your compliments! It is an Eleanor Burns pattern called Cinnamon Swirl. Her pattern calls for honeybuns to make it, but, I used yardage, and designed the color scheme. It is made identical to a log cabin though.

It is a beautiful quilt!!!! And I love the quilting on it, wish I was that little boy who will get to see it under a black light. I hadn't seen this pattern before, thanks for sharing it.

Anyway, I couldn't WAIT to share these photos with you all! This is my very first full size quilt (almost completed....just have to hand sew binding to the back.) This quilt is for my 7 year old nephew for Christmas. It is Eleanor Burns Cinnamon Swirl Pattern and it was so much fun to make. My LAQ quilted it with an all over pattern in rainbow thread that glows under black lights. I know, I know........I will definitely take pics as soon as I find myself a black light! I can't wait to see that myself!

I wanted to say how much I appreciated everyone's encouraging words about the quilt I made for my parents for Christmas. You all are the best! Enjoy!

LOVE IT AND YES I REMEMBER THE TALENTED RAY STEVENS ALSO.THE STREAK.LOL

Really cute quilt! You can probably buy a black light at Walmart right now. Look with the regular fluorescent lighting. Halloween is a popular time for black lights.
