Quick Rotary Cutter Quilts by Pam Bono

Instructions

I bought this book years ago, I cut the fabrics and it languished in the closet for a few years. I finally took it out, pieced it then quilted it. I work full time so it took me almost a year to complete it. I'm very happy with the result.

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Home

Style: Classic, Romantic


Materials

100% cotton fabric thread

What was your inspiration?

The design in the book. It was one of those 'have to do' projects.

What are you most proud of?

That I finished it. It was a LOT of piecing.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Don't be in a rush, Have fun picking out the colors/tones for your flowers then sew away!

Thank you. That's why it languished in my closet for a few years. Finally, I decided to start piecing it together then I. really got excited as it started coming together. I guess I am persistent. lol

Thank you. If you break it down to smaller projects, it becomes manageable.
