I get a lot of different panels donated. Frequently a court house steps or log cabin type of piecing works well. Sometimes adding a checkerboard, pinwheels, or other simple blocks makes them big enough to be a larger crib size.

I especially love the blue one. Is that Bonnie Hunter's Delectable Mountains pattern?

Yes, it is. It is a very easy way to do the delectable mountains design. It is about 50" x 42". It took around 7 hours to make. I had a lot of interruptions in the process.

I love all your tops. I also made this pattern (but in green) and would be anxious to see how yours will be quilted, because I really don't know how to do mine.

I'm thinking of doing a clamshell. I recently took Harriet Hargraves class on Hierloom Machine quilting and she said that the clamshell was one of the easiest FMQ designs to do. So I'm going to practice on this quilt.
