    Pam - that looks like a reeeeeally big quilt. What did you use for batting & backing to keep it from weighing a ton? I love the colors.

    I love it!!! The colors make that quilt. Oh, I mean your stitching makes it, I'm sure, I can't see it but I love those colors. You've given me the start on another quilt notebook for sometime soon.

    Pam, it's just lovely!

    It is a very big queensize quilt! The squares are all in flannel & I used warm & natural batting & the back is flannel quilt backing. It does weigh a lot but my son loves it. I have to tell you that I liked this pattern so much that I made one for my daughter also. I used some of the same fabrics & had the family help putting color combos together & then I would stack them & chain stitch them together so that the whole square was chained together (16 of the 3" squares). I stacked them in shoe boxes & when I got enough together I'd start sewing the 12" squares together. I got inspired by Cathe & drew up the pattern. It is only for reference as it is a digital photo of a drawing. I'm going to make some pillow shams to match.

    This will give a rough idea of how this block is done

    Computers!!! Someday I'll get them figured out. Please be patient. I guess it does come up when you push the download button. I wonder why sometimes I can get the photo to come up & other times I can't? Oh well
