Friday Finish For Mum!

This one took quite a while to finish, but so worth it!


This is Bonnie and Camille's Round and Round pattern that I've used before and just love working on the large blocks.


Fabric is Day Sail from Camille Roskelley........... perfect for a summer quilt!



The back was what took me the longest.  I debated on whether to track down more yardage of Day Sail or to piece the back with what I had left.  I found the little sail boat blocks on pinterest....


I also added more friendship blocks for another border to break up the solid blue.


I recently read a blogger's post that talked about having trouble photographing finished quilts...
My Liam is not concerned... and maybe a bit bored?




This quilt is a gift for the family's Cape House!  Just in time for the 4th of July vacation week!  

Linking up with Crazy Mom and NTT....
Thanks for stopping by and an early Happy 4th to all!

  3. Amazing work, Jen and I love what you did on the back - always think it makes the quilt doubly special when it has a 'strong back' ... lovely!
