sew positive

A few weeks ago I volunteered to test a pattern for Elizabeth.  She said that we could choose whichever size we wanted.  I went with the wall sized quilt because my blank walls are always in need of a little color.

I have a stack of Kaffe Fassett shot cotton scraps that have been sitting on my shelf ever since I made this quilt.  I just love how bright and pretty they are.  The background is the newspaper print from Collage.

The pattern was very clear and well written and quick.  I had all of the pieces cut out and sewn together before I knew it :)

Finished size: 24"x24"
Pattern available at Don't Call Me Betsy in the near future

    What a pretty composition! The newspaper print is the perfect contrast to glowing solid colors.
