    Default Outback and Beyond (Oriental Elegance)

    I made this top at retreat last year and finished the machine quilting today. I had collected fabrics over the years from Hawaii, Australia, New Zealand and my DD brought some back from Tahiti. I wanted to use them all in this one quilt, and although the pattern was Oriental Elegance by Pine Tree Country Quilts from the Sept 2007 The Quilter Magazine; I am happy with my version.
