A while back I decided to take on a lap quilt as a project for my cousin Crystal's housewarming gift. When I started I had an idea about what I wanted it to look like but wasn't in love with the pattern. I looked high and low on the internet and finally found the Cathedral Window Quilt tutorial from Hyena In Petticoats. I knew when I looked through the flickr group that this was the pattern I was looking for. It has tradition but can also look very modern.
This window pane is my favorite pink one.
This is my favorite B&W one.I started with this size just in case this project was a dud for me. It isn't I love the way this quilt looks. I am even thinking of making a few small ones like this as wall hangings to give for christmas. We'll see what The List looks like when I get this quilt done.
wow that is beautiful...looks like a lot of work.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! A friend of mine has been working on a full-size version of that for quite some time. It is a lot of work but worth it!
ReplyDeleteWay to go chica! It is stunning--love the colors. Did you give it to Crystal yet?
ReplyDeleteNot yet. I want it to be about 4 times the size before I give it to her. I am working on the next piece though.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty...I have been wanting to make a cathedral window quilt for a long time!
ReplyDeleteThis is pretty easy following the tutorial. You should give a 4 square patch a try. You'll be addicted!
