Five out of six isn't bad

This is finish number 5 for the 4th quarter goal I set here.  This little flimsy is from a pattern on Esch House Quilts called Cobblestones. I used only 3 fabrics for this quilt which makes picking out the fabrics really simple. But then you combine that with an easy to piece pattern and you have a winner!

This is what it looks like today now that it is all quilted and bound.  I was having a ball quilting serveral tops using an allover meander swirl/feather from a Judy Madsen video so why not do it to this top also!  I modified the feather technique to the Hooked on Feather style(Sally Terry). No backtracking, which works wonderfully when you are in a hurry. BUT I also added in a few of the backtracking feathers. I had to as I made a boo boo and didn't want to rip it out, so by doing more it looked like it was supposed to be there!!



Linking up with Fabric Frenzy Friday, CrazyMomQuilts and at the end of the Quarter with
On the Windy Side
Have a great weekend everyone!

    Wow I love this quilt and the quilting Vicki! No boo-boos visible anywhere my eyes can see...I thought at first it was just a 2-colour quilt until closer inspection. Beautiful!

    Love the colors of the fabrics you chose and the simplicity of just using three. The quilting looks wonderful! I'm impressed.

    The quilt is really nice, but it's your quilting that makes it outstanding. Very nice!
