THE DONE DEAL

My quest to de-stash some of my fabric really went well this week.  I found a fast and easy pattern and it is really pretty made up.  So Block A with 13 of them went fast.   


I did mis-calculator on fabric and found I did not have enough of the green to do 12 Block B's.  I was not completely sure about the addition of this second fabric, but I had no choice in the matter.  


In the end the quilt came out just perfectly.  So much so that I am tempted to make another with this pattern.  The size is nice 50 by 50 inches.  


And I have a finished quilt top so I am going to link up with.

  1. Hi Donnalee! I didn't even notice the substitution until you pointed it out! Great match, and it looks intentional to me. It gives the whole pattern a little movement and continuity, I think. That will be a quick one to quilt as well! Lots of lineal options there is both directions. Happy Happy Friday to you. ~smile~ Roseanne

  5. Love it - this may be my next baby quilt with nursery fabric in the center blocks. How much yardage did you use?

  8. Good job and the two greens blend so well that the're undetectable .... until someone points it out! Lol!

  9. I secretly like oversights like your miscalculation ... They push me into "problem solver" mode and make me come up with creative fixes. Your second green is perfect -- well done!

  10. This is another really great pattern. The two different greens work quite well together. Very nice.
