Back in the fall of 2014 I was very lucky and won a fat quarter bundle from Sew Sister’s Blogathon Canada. It was Northcott’s Stonehenge OH CANADA line. Last year I made this quilt and donated it to Quilts of Valour Canada.
I used the leftover fabric to make another quilt to donate in 2016. This also gives me my second FAL finish for the first quarter (here is a link to my original FAL post)
I used a poppy motif in the centre of the squares and in the border. I also did quite a bit of ruler work in the light border and between the squares. The front is so busy that it is hard to see the quilting. I like the design that it makes on the back.
I altered my label to add the Quilts of Valour logo.

Lovely! I really like the design of the first quilt, it’s mesmerising! The quilting on the second is wonderful – those poppies are perfect!
Wow, so much about this quilt is amazing! The quilting really blows me away and gives it an extra special touch. Nicely done! Thank you for participating in the FAL, on behalf of the 2016 global FAL hosts.
Gorgeous quilt, and you are such an expert at stretching your left overs!
