A Salty Giant!

Yesterday I finished another quilt top!

Salt Air Giant Star 002
70" x 70"
I love the simplicity of Jeni's design, using 8 fat quarters (I used Salt Air) and some yardage (Klona navy).

Salt Air Giant Star 004

I will be teaching this as a one day workshop in the Autumn, so this will be my class sample.  I also got a pieced back made using the leftovers (no pics yet, sorry).  So I'm all ready to baste this baby at the weekend!

As for today, I will be a 'lady wot lunches' (& shops for fabric, and drinks coffee, and natters loads) with 2 lovely quilty friends.

More on that tomorrow!

Have a goodun'!

    That's a neat quilt and it would be a great way to make donation baby quilts fast. Something to add to the list....

    Have always love salt air, but never bought any. Your quilt shows it off beautifully with such large pieces. Loving it.
