    Default Travels to Esoterra

    I printed this pattern out quite a long time ago from Mara Quilt Designs, and made the blocks last November, finished the binding and washed it today, ready for gifting.
    I machine quilted it on my Sapphire, the fabrics were all gifted to me from a quilting buddy years ago. I used Hobbs 80/20 batting. It is 48 x 64” .

    Yes, me too, but my quilt was planned and started last year so the label reads…..

    Sunflowers shining the colour of Gold,
    A sign of Adoration and Loyalty as we grow old!
    Made with love, May 2022

    You did a lovely job and even fussy cut the cute small blocks. This is a great pattern for those fabrics that you just can't cut smaller or you lose the design.

    Beautiful quilting and excellent piecing! Love this pattern. It would make a good quilt for the older kids of CASA.

    I found it! It's called Borneo Nights and best of all, it is still FREE-lol I see one in the future for kids !!! Thanks!
