Craftsy quilt kits are a great way to build your stash even when you don't care for the pattern! It's my favorite way to get my hands on an entire fabric collection plus background fabrics for amazing prices!
My quilt was entry #72 in the original post at the beginning of March, and you can find my March goal post HERE.

ReplyDeleteSo fun - I love dots!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous quilt, it really does match your daughter's room, it picks up the colours in her books! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely gorgeous - and I love that you stuck with all dots for it!
ReplyDeleteI'm happy to see another Grand Illusion finished! Mine is waiting to be quilted. Maybe this month. The Dots are great.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun quilt! Your color choices are really good and look fantastic on your daughter's bed.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun quilt! The colors and layout are really striking, and look great in your daughter's room! I totally agree--clotheslines are the best for quilt photos!
ReplyDeleteWow! What a stunning quilt. It is so exciting to have a quilt finished after all of that work. I am a fan of the clothesline for showing off quilts - outdoors in the garden makes them look so pretty.
ReplyDeleteWow - so bright and cheerful and I love all those dots!
