    Default My DGD's Chevron with a Minkee Back
    My sweet 7 yo DGD informed me she was the only one in her family that didn't have a minkee quilt - so this is what she's going to have. This pic is fresh off the frame, before I did get the binding put on. A really quick pattern to make up -- I used 8" squares for my (4) hst (laid one neutral, one color right sides together, stitched 1/4" from the edge, 'x' cut), ended up being appx 49" X 49" finished size. The back is a Dr. Seuss minkee print. quilted with circles.
    Thanks for looking!

    There is nothing better than a quilt with minkee. I don't blame her for asking...lol. They are the best when it's chilly. She's going to love it. The chevron is a great pattern.
