That turned out so pretty! The swirl quilting is perfect.

I love the Lori Holt patterns and I have asked my DH for the Farm Girl book for my birthday next month. It's been on my bucket list since before we were even married, so I think it's time to get it!

Your quilt is awesome. I guess I have been hiding in my sewing room too long-I haven't seen that pattern or book. But is is super refreshing. It looks so happy. Quilting pattern is really complementary to the piecing. Now, it time to enjoy it.

The batting is Joann Fabrics warm and natural - on sale of course!

Thank you. I saw this quilt on display and fell in love. After about 1/3 of the blocks completed I fell out of love and really did not enjoy the process wishing I had done 12” blocks instead of 6”. I struggled with the small pieces and getting the blocks all the same size and that is why I didn’t put the flying geese in the border as I knew they wouldn’t match and it would be another headache. However, I am glad I finished it and feel accomplished but never again a quilt with such small pieces for me.
