Love your quilt. Here's my version which is VERY, VERY easy. It doesn't "puff" as much, but gives the same effect.

Love it, but so right about not wanting to do that much work again! The one I made is in my Avatar. Love your colors!

This is beautiful!

The biscuit quilt is a huge queen throw so she has no need for that yet but it needs to have some of the biscuits stitched together and I may suggest she use it during her next visit and may just wait and show her how to do the mending and see if she would like to have it. I love your puff quilt but don't know if I'd have the patience to do it. I only tolerated the biscuit quilt because I'm a scrap quilter and every time I worked with a fabric, I'd also cut out a biscuit and accumulated them in a laundry basket until there were enough to put together. The putting together was honestly the worst part as I had to do them by hand. I assume you had to put your puffs together by hand as well.

Do you have a link for biscuit quilt? and maybe a pic? I thought they were the same, what is the difference?
Thanks a bunch!

I know what you mean. I started one 3 years ago and it is still in pieces. I only have 13 rows sewn together. I think I got burned out making the puffs but my goal is to finish it but I'm not sure just what year. :oops: :oops:

That's why I only did a child's one, figured I would never get finished if it was too big. Though I admit the full size one in the book I had was tempting.
