    I started this last winter and am just now finishing. I am keeping it (at least until one of the grandkids or nieces talk me out of it, lol).
    The back is flannel the medallions are hand quilted then the rest is quilted using what I call turkey tracks.
    I just realized I forgot to remove a few of my basting threads.
    Don't look at those.LOL

    Hi MarjaMT, No pattern. I began a roman coin to use up some of my tons of scraps and thought to dress it up with a few paper pieced medallion type blocks. The whole thing just kind of evolved.
    Like improvisational jazz. Sometimes it works and sometimes not. 8-)
