Utility Quilt
 

Quilt Stats
Pattern Name: Boxed Squares
Dimensions: 53" X 48"
Fabric source/name: Connecting Threads jelly roll + strips cut from yardage
corduroy backing
Pieced and quilted by machine

I wanted to make a utility quilt for the car and had this jelly roll laying around. Bought some corduroy yardage from the local thrift store last year and decided to use it for the backing as an experiment. Good for a utility quilt, makes it a bit heavier, and it doesn't slip around. However, I think I used too much tension when I put it on the frame because the edges rippled a bit. Brought the back to the front to bind, which also made a border. Quilted it with my favorite easy 9 patch pattern.

nice... I like your quilting :)

Oh I love your quilt. I like that pattern anyway, and it's perfect for any quilt. It is a really good one for your car. That gives me an idea. lol... I like the type fabrics you used. They will serve well as a utility quilt. :) I love that quilting how it shows on the back side.

I think it came out just fine. I do not see so much rippling. I love the colors you picked.

very nice quilt pretty colos!!!!!

Nice! Love the corduroy for the backing idea - I'll have to try it.
I really like the quilting design you used as well.

I always call this pattern a Square in a Square. It is a fun pattern to make and so many variations.

Pretty colors, great quilting, really nice!

This lovely quilt certainly was "not" what I was expecting for a "utility" quilt. Very pretty!
