Bill's Quilt

I am calling this Bill's Quilt because it was inspired by a quilt that Bill Volckening showed on FaceBook on May 10, 2017.

This is Bill's quilt...it is made of velvet. I was intrigued by that pattern and thought...i can do that....


So, i did.  Here is my version...in blue and green cottons.  the blocks are 7" finished...156 of them. haha


I strip pieced them....a great way to whittle down some stash.


I cut 1 1/2" strips from all the blues and greens that i had.


I put on 2 green borders and 2 blue borders. it seemed only fitting.


It is 95x102.  i really like it. it will go on my bed....eventually. for now, it will live in the to-be-quilted cabinet.

Thank you, Bill Volckening, for the inspiration
