I was reminded today that I hadn't posted a photo of this quilt finished. I made it for my sister and brother and law for their wedding. I gave it to them last Christmas. Over a year late!
The finished size was 207 x 207 which covered my queen-size bed nicely but in the end was much bigger than I anticipated. I used a pattern called 'Memories of Summer' by Suzanne Lyle. I purchased the pattern from Ballarat Patchwork a couple of years ago. The fabric was purchased at GJs in Brunswick.
The overall quilting design of butterflies was done by Lucy Thompson of Lasting Creations.
I enjoyed putting the blocks together but they were a little trickier to piece than anticipated because of the small squares and narrow rectangles. The strong geometric lines and large central pieces make it a good quilt to make from fabric with a large print. Easy to make smaller by only making as many blocks as you need.
