Here's Matt's

Well, here's Matt's quilt....well, the top anyway! These pictures are close-ups of the fabric because my camera does not do justice to the material for some reason. Maybe because of the flash, not sure. Anyway, it's really coming along nicely.





There were two sets of blocks I had to make that were mirror images of each other (had to really concentrate on that one). Then you follow a puzzle piece when sewing them all together to get the finished look.




It was really confusing on how to get them sewn together. I had to make one strip of 4 blocks to make each row following the puzzle piece. Then I sewed each strip as I finished it so I wouldn't screw it up. I only had to rip the blocks apart twice (pretty good, I think if you were to see the pattern) !!






When I got home from class, I only had 3 remaining rows to put on the quilt in order to complete the top so I did that at home. Now, all I have left to do is put on two borders, batting, binding, backing, and it's ready to be quilted. This one went together so quick. I've only worked on it for 4 weeks.
