    Default Goodnight Irene, made from leftovers

    I had a bunch of 2 inch squares leftover from the pieced border of my Be Attitudes quilt. I had read about a "Goodnight Irene" quilt along in November of last year, perfect to use up leftover squares.
    This pattern is also known as Arkansas Crossroads. It's very easy to put together and a great leader ender project.
    The first two pics are Goodnight Irene, the last is Be Attitudes, from whence the leftover squares came. Please excuse the poor quality of the pics, I couldn't find my camera so I used my phone.

    Gorgeous quilts, and the quilting is extra special. Isn't it great when one thing (quilt) leads to another?
