It’s only been 8 years since I started this quilt! It’s about time that I have a handmade quilt on my bed. I am glad that I pushed through and just finished it!

The center is pieced with a Rose Dreams Sizzix die. Then I added three rows of 2″ patchwork borders and then a few rows of patchwork squares down the sides.

Jean at JKThreads quilted it for me because there was no way I was pushing all this material through my domestic machine! The finished quilt is 96″ x 108″ and she used two layers of batting and the TIme Warp edge to edge design.

I’m so happy to have a quilt on my bed now so I no longer have to confess that I do not when I am asked following lectures. It’s a surprisingly frequently asked question!
