Quilt Top Finished!

Ta-da, the quilt top of my second quilt is finished! As you can see, it still needs the batting and backing sewn on. I have enough fabric to make another throw-size quilt, or to make this big enough for a bed, but I haven't decided what I'll do.



The pattern doesn't have a specific name, but combines 'snowball' and nine-patch blocks to form a chain effect. It was a very simple, quick pattern to learn with, and I love the finished effect. Even with so simple a design, though, I was surprised how tricky it was to make all the corners meet as perfectly as I wanted! About 75% of the fabric is from the stash, so it was great to be able to use it up.





May it please the supreme and divine Goodness to give us all abundant grace
ever to know His most holy will and perfectly to fulfill it.

- St. Ignatius of Loyola
