I finished this quilt in record time (for me at least).
I cut the first pieces Friday evening and took the finished quilt out of the dryer first thing Monday morning. It helped that I had a strict deadline (even if it was self-imposed), and that I abandonned all housework for a few days.
Though far from perfect, I couldn't be happier with the way it turned out. I love the simple blocks and bright colors.
It has been gifted to a co-worker and his wife (both architects) and their new little one.
A combination of solids from Moda, Robert Kaufman, and Michael Miller. Inspired by a quilt by B. Perrino. Backing is Olavi in Blueberry from Lotta Jansdotter's new Glimma Collection. Somewhat straight line quilting 1" apart. Finished quilt measures approximately 42" x 60".
