    Lovely quilt! I can see why you are a pattern design tester. I enjoyed the link you posted with Brenda's story!

    Enjoy your awesome quilt in your cabin!

    Thank you for all the nice comments on the quilt.

    Getting to be a tester was a little bit of divine intervention in my life. I was working at Joann’s as a cashier and since I had a very regular schedule, I tried to get to know my regulars so I could great them by name when I saw them. One of my regulars came in and needed a quick fabric she mentioned that it was for a test quilt that she had to get done by the next week and I had made a comment that I did testing for American test kitchen and it was fun to be involved in testing. A few months later when she was in again for more fabrics for another test she asked if I had any interest in testing so I gave her my info. After a few emails with Brenda, she asked me if I would like to review and test a pattern last June. I have since quit working so to spend more time with my 89 year old mother, which hasn’t worked out with the covid-19 and my chemo treatments.

    Thank you, It was one of the first BOM on Crafty way back in 2012 when I started to do quilting. It's still a orphan block LOL.

    Really pretty. I can also see it being done as a scrappy with diff color jacks and the same "chains"

    Beautiful quilt and pretty fabric choices for the design. It's great to know the pattern has been tested first.
