    Default Tumbler quilt

    Ok, so Tartan recently posted how to post a pic from the iPad (thank you Tartan) and I've been successful with it a couple of times so I thought I'd join in on the picture thread and show this quilt that I recently finished. It was a little bit of a challenge for me as I haven't done anything like it with angles before. So with that, not realizing there was an easier way I had read where someone had done one from top to bottom instead of horizontal rows and that's what I did. I'm sure now that it would have been better to do it across instead, but with the help of good ol' Elmer (as so many of you have posted about) I got it finished.

    I did it with no 2 charms alike. Does that make it an I Spy quilt?

    Thanks for looking.

    Pretty quilt. Don't you love making tumblers? I love working with all the different fabrics, & it's so easy to do.

    Now you know! An "I Spy" quilt to me is one for a child - it will have things for a child to look for - a frog, a hot air balloon, a ballerina, etc. Something juvenile.

    I think it would be called a charm quilt since the all fabrics different. It certainly is charming.
