I'm finished early this month....woohoo!!!
This is May's #2 UFO Challenge quilt....presented by Judy Laquidara....over at www.patchworktimes.com check her out...she is hilarious. she has great quilt patterns, recipes and stories of her life with her husband, Vince; their dog, Speck; their chickens; and life on the Yellow Jacket Ranch in Texas. she's a hoot!
This was a pattern in the book called Shadow Quilts by Patricia Magaret and Donna Slusser. there are many awesome quilts in this book...but i doubt if i have time to make any more of them. but i couldn't resist this one.
This came out 65" square. i originally designed another border with 4" churn dash blocks but i think i was insane when i did that....so i stopped here.
I got these fabrics from my friend, Mary's, yard sale. i don't think i would have picked them to go together....but she had them sitting together at the sale and they seemed to want to stay together. i think it worked.
And i used the last of that yellow/gold check so that is a good thing. still have a bit of the other two.
I wonder what the number for next month will be....well, i'll find out...
Later

Congrats on the finished quilt!
Really pretty color combo. I love churn dash blocks. Congrats on an early finish--hope I can say that one of these months :)
Good choice to scrap the churn dash border - it throws all the interest to the fabulous top.
The churn dash block is on e of my all time favorites! Congrats on getting the quilt done and off your UFO list.
