This is my first attempt at doing a stack and wack, or kaleidoscope, quilt. I'm new to quilting and seen this quilt hanging on wall at LQS, inquired about it, and they just happened to be doing a classes with it, so I joined in. Please don't look to carefully to pics as alot of my points don't line up, but I've learned alot with this quilt process.
The pattern is called Elegance from Quilt Moments and is made with Northcott's Sophisticate Collection.
This quilt is for my niece who is getting married in Aug.

There are 3 different blocks in this pattern. First block is 6.5 inches and has no 'frame' around it. These blocks go around the outside of the quilt. The other 2 blocks are also 6.5 inches but have a 'frame' around them, one in black and one in lighter 'wave' fabric. All blocks are square.

Thanks for the kind comment!
