Beautiful quilts. I saw a table runner done with the first blue prints. and all they had left was the allover print that you used in the border and center. Couldn't find the print with the individual squares. I am going to make table runners for family members that have moved out of state.

I just used the fleece with no batting. They are just lap quilts but they are warm. I am making a larger MN Fabric one and am just using fleece. I got the fleece on sale at Jo Ann's and for casual quilts I decided to try the fleece. For a baby or a quilt for someone I would more and likely use batting also. Have a nice day.

Hello,
Size of quilt is 50" x 70". You need 7 dark blue fat quarters or what ever color you are using.
22 5" panel squares or charms. The squares I used were from a panel that is the MN Shop Hop fabric
1-2/3 yd light blue
1 yd stripe for sashing and first border & binding. I made a scrappy binding.
Cut four 8"1/2 squares from each fat quarter. Use raw edge applique to put 5" squares on 22 of the 8-1/2" squares. Scatter randomly and tilt them. Did not applique on the four dark blue squares. Cut light blue 22-1/2" wide by 24-1/2" long. Cut two 1-1/2" x 24-1/2" strips and attach to sides of light blue rectangle (center). Sew rows together as in picture, putting 1-1/2" strips under rows 2 & 5. Sew the two blocks for rows 3 & 4. Border with 1-1/2" and 4-1/2 strips for outer border.
Hope this all makes sense. Just look at the picture and it will be easy. When I appliqued the 5" squares I just used quilting spay instead of stabilizer.
Have a nice day
