I made this quilt because I was taken by the greys and yellows (and anchors) in the Lakeside Gatherings range of fabrics and wanted to see what they were like to sew with. The quilt uses one ‘Jolly Bar’ (42 5″ by 10″ rectangles). Although I liked a lot of the prints I think I would add some warmer colours, or use more yellow, if sewing with them again.
In arranging the lights and darks I experimented with a mixture of order and randomness, which I think works. The binding is from a fabric I bought about ten years ago and sewing with it was like meeting up with an old friend!
