I am so new to quilting, that I can only wish to aspire to such skills as I see with your quilt and of oodles of other women and men on this site. High five lady :-)

Can you please though tell us Which Book you found such a cool pattern? lol I read through all 3 pages and can't believe no one asks, lol, cause we all know we are of the inquiring mind set.

Spectacular quilt! Wohoo - way to go!

melodylamour - the book is "One Block Wonders Encore!" by Maxine Rosenthal & Joy Pelzmann ... have been reading it myself and just purchased fabric I think will make a nice one. Well, had to buy a couple different fabrics - one not so expensive, one pretty expensive so will do a trial run before I cut the really expensive stuff (Kona Bay fabric with wisteria and all its lushious rich colours).

Should also say that this book should carry a health warning 'These Quilts can be Seriously Addictive'! :mrgreen:

Your quilt is so beautiful! Congratulations on the great job. I was wondering if you sewed your label on by hand at the end, or did you sew it to the quilt back, and then quilt everything? I want to add a label to my next quilt, and I'm not sure the best way to do it. Thanks for the help!
