She thought it was the oddest way to make a quilt, but she did it. I told her I would post the pictures and print out the comments for her. She also makes the English paper piece hexagons, i must have a zillion by now. I love her, she's my biggest fan!

What a wonderful quilt! Have been wanting to make one with that pattern. Now I am inspired.

We learned this technique at our guild meeting not long ago. It is fast and easy.

Very pretty!

Just beautiful. I'm working on a demin-I Spy one using this method. I really like how you finished the edge. I will use your method.I was not sure how to finish it (if I ever get that far). I'll aslo use red as it makes a nice border. Thanks for the idea. Now (sigh) I have to start collecting red jeans.

Jammin' Jane 09-07-2011 08:01 AM

You tell Momma it looks like a very complicated quilt to make! It looks wonderful! Great job, Momma!! :)
