Finished this tube quilt for my brother and sister in law. It's for their anniversary. They have been married 41 years. Used a warmer batting than usual, I hope they like it. The batting I used is called Dream Puff, my LQS has just started carring it.

The package doesn't say if it's poly or cotton.

I love your quilt. Is the pattern called Tube Quilt or does the term Tube Quilt refer to something else related to quilting?

there should be a tute here on how to make tube quilts. it's a method of sewing strips together, layering them and sewing together which makes a tube. then cutting triangles from them and getting two different looking blks. quick and easy.
