KID QUILT #7 - MAPLE ISLAND


KID QUILT #7 - MAPLE ISLAND

For this quilt, I used this collection of Fall prints, called "Maple Island" by Moda. There were forty-two strips, with only a few repeats.  Each strip measured 2.5" x 42".

This Jelly Roll friendly Log Cabin quilt was made using the pattern found at the Jordan Fabric youtube channel. The log cabin blocks were made from 35 of the strips in the set.  If I had thought of it sooner, I could have used the leftover strips for the binding!  Oh, well!  More fabric for my ever-growing stash! 

The backing is a pale, mottled beige flannel and was purchased from JoAnn Fabrics and Crafts Store.  I also bought the fabric for the border and binding there.  

The finished size of the quilt is 53" x 73".

I used Warm and White batting, also purchased from JoAnn.  The digital quilting pattern is called "Pumpkin Vines" and can be purchased from Anne Bright Designs.  The thread I used was YLI Light Brown cotton.



Here are some photos of the quilt in progress:
