Square in a square front

I'll try to post a pic of the back, as we used the left overs from the front. This was pieced by Ava, Paula and me for Milat, a friend. Ava pieced hers by hand. It was 100" x 110" as you can see the last few inches got cut off as I didn't start it a few inches higher and I ran out of backing. I'm alright with it though. It's not perfect, but it will provide warmth to her heart and soul. DH said "Vanilla, chocolate and strawberry" when he saw it.

I agree with Lynnie. Reminds me of Chocolate covered cherries. It is really a very attractive quilt with the fabrics you used.

Very pretty quilt. Love your husband's name for it. The 'shortened' squares are so she knows which end to put the pillows on!

I like the back as well as the front. Like 2 quilts in one

What a wonderful quilt on the front as well as the back.

I work in a hospital. That was inside our break room. The stockings are hung in the hallway at work! Thank goodness I don't have to fill all those stockings!

I'm just nuts about 2-sided quilts. Yours is wonderful - I can't even pick a favorite side - it's a tie!

Merrylin 12-19-2015 04:56 PM

Beautiful! The back is as good as the front.
