This favorite quilt was finished several years ago, from Quiltville, from one of Bonnie Hunter's books, -- she called her pattern Day Break. Despite looking fiddly and painful to deal with little pieces, the blocks went together quickly, and the little bits were perfectly aligned. It has sentimental emotions attached, was one of the quilts made from the "box of scraps" my LQS gave me, and I had hand quilted the border during a lovely jaunt DH and I took Roosevelt National Park - I really love it, called it "Slim Pickins". But it was just too small to cover the blankets on a full size bed . Note the borders in the above photo -- 3 sides have an additional border added - I'm working on the 4th. I removed the binding, then dug into scraps and decided to add 6 inches to each side, sort of Quilt as you Go method. It's not perfect on the back but it will do, now measuring about 84" x 96". Yes, the little border squares are one inch. Again, I pulled out the big table hidden behind the sofa, to help while working on it. Having that table INSIDE the house was one of my best ideas.
