Take Six or Just Six
 
1 Attachment(s)
At the end of January I posted a picture I found online to see if any of you knew what the pattern was. Thanks to all of your great comments and the help of a dear friend, I finished the quilt without a pattern and gave it to my son and his fiancée at their shower on Sunday. It wowed everyone there and I just want to say thank you again for all the help.

​Your quilt will wow everyone that sees it! Super job!

Forgot to mention I used eight fabrics instead of six as I wanted the boxes to be deeper, and have more gradation. Strips were cut at 1 3/4.

I cannot believe you did it without a pattern!!! I wouldn't know where to begin.

As everyone else has said, WOW, that is a beautiful quilt. Do you have a picture of how it was quilted? Just curious how you decided to finish it.

Great job and wonderful color choice.

This quilt is stunning. LOVE IT. Did you sew the eight strips together from light to dark then cut in a triangle? You did a great job. Congratulations. BrendaK
