First finish of August 2024


 First of all I have to say I love this quilt!  It is my version of The Square Within from Karla Alexander's book Color Shuffle.  It looks a lot like the one in the book although I used mostly different Kaffe collective fabrics. 
The top was finished in October 2022 It is 51" x 73".
It has Hobbs 80/20 batting and was quilted by Robin Diaz.




I love the backing fabric too.  It is Brandon Mably's Scuba.  I love all of the pink...  

This is one of my favorite quilts and I'm keeping this one.
