This quilt is one that I had the most fun making.  I *love* raw-edge applique and I designed and made the templates for my quilt using a pinking blade in my rotary cutter.  The instructions allow for other types of applique but most of our local little quilt group made this quilt with their own scrappy fabrics and colors and it was SO. MUCH. FUN. to see how different everyone’s finished out (you can see one here and a few more here)!  Not to mention that each block goes together very quickly, if you use raw-edge applique, because you just cut and sew using your own creativity!

I was a nanny to a baby 25-years-ago (eeeek!) and this was the quilt I gave her upon her college graduation.  I had intended to give her a completely different quilt when she graduated from high school…but, it didn’t fit with her personality.  THIS one spoke her name to me and she absolutely loves it!

Go on, have a little more quilt therapy fun and enjoy making this festive quilt!
