Quick & Easy Quilt
 
1 Attachment(s)
A dear friend is moving to another city, so I needed to make a quilt for her quickly before her going-away party. The half-square triangles are 7-1/2" (7" finished) and the sashing strips are cut 1-1/2" (finished 1"). This quilt came together super fast! I gave my friend this quilt today and she seemed very happy with it!

The sashing strips and cornerstones really give it some dimensions. Nice quick quilt.

wow I like the way you put it together

Very pretty, it takes me at least a week to make any quilt. I went back to work full time and only sew on weekends doing housework and laundry too. I get 2-3 hours in the evenings at most. Seems like I'm getting slower.

That's a lovely gift. Your quilt inspires me to try a pattern from my book of big block quilts.

Those narrow sashing strips with the cornerstone really make the blocks snap. I love this quilt & don't wonder that your friend thinks it's the cat's pajamas! Great (quick!) job!!!
