Economy Patch Quilt - Country Gardens Quilt


Economy Patch Quilt
Pattern by Kaffe Fassett from Country Garden Quilts Book



This was a true scrap quilt for me.  (As with any of the pictures, if you want to see them larger, open them in a new window and you can zoom in.)



It is displayed here on the outside steps of the Seattle Art Museum.  I love the museum and they have wonderful visiting exhibits.  Love being a member.




My beautiful cat Lois.  Placing a quilt on the ground is cat bait.


I love the backing fabric.


I quilted it in rounds of feathers.
