"Goal Achieved" quilt for DB and SIL
My brother and his wife have had a goal of visiting all 58 National Parks. They achieved that in June by visiting Crater Lake. Shortly after, the National Parks line of fabric came out, so of course I had to make this for them as their Christmas gift. I used BQ by Maple Island Quilts to showcase the fabric.[ATTACH=CONFIG]376522[/ATTACH]
I asked John for pictures of their visit to Crater Lake to use on the label. It snowed there in June. My DD used the photos to make a label. She found an old-time postcard to use, which goes with the Parks postcard fabric I used for the backing. [ATTACH=CONFIG]376523[/ATTACH]
I don't know why the photos are so small and I can't figure out how to make them larger
I've used BQ or BQ2 a couple of times to make quilts where I want to focus on a large print fabricc. It works well and is easy to change the size of the quilt by using more or fewer of the blocks.
Oops, photos did show up full size in the post.
