Design Wall Monday...

....and floor, too!

I am working on the bday 4M11 quilt.  His birthday was actually last Friday but I just decided on Thursday to make him a quilt. I am hoping to have it completed by Wednesday so that I can gift it to him!

The blocks. It is Eleanor Burns' Country Lane Quilt found in her Quilts Through the Seasons book. One source for the book.  I actually purchased mine at JAF with a 40% off coupon a few years back.  :)

The flimsy top.  I was questioning the use of the flat grey but, fingers crossed~it will look better quilted.

    Love it, Pat! I am drawn to anything with a chain through it. Hugs!

    The grey works well. Quilting will perk it up. I love the chains.

    I, too, like the gray but that also could be because I just bought three gray fabrics for a new quilt. I think the gray tones down the bright blue and keeps everything balanced.
