Three Dudes quilt
 

I made this between making the Hearts of Hope and working on making Rhododendron Trail, both from Bonnie Hunter.
I thought it would be a fast simple project at my quilt retreat in Shipshewana, Indiana with Gay Bomers. My first mistake was not using a walking foot and then trying to square up the blocks after cutting them diagonally. All the edges of the blocks after cutting are on the bias. Nothing matched. I ditched the quilt and started RT instead. When I returned home and calmed down, I recut every block using a template that I had made with all the seams marked. That way I knew they would all align. Here is the finished top which is slightly smaller and finished at 55" sq. It will be backed with a medium blue Minkie and bound in black.

that is beautiful - and I can see how matching up all those lines would be difficult .love that you made a template with all the matching points on - great job

very striking. the black binding will set it off nicely!

very pretty quilt

Oh, bias is very hard to work with. It seems to grow all by itself. You did a fabulous job on it.

Sorry you had so much trouble with it, but the result is fabulous. Great job.

It's so lovely!

Well, hello!! I was at the retreat in Shipshe too and recognize your work! I was across the aisle and working on veterans quilts and my Dear Jane. Small world!

That turned out gorgeous.
