Quilt #011 Double Pinwheels

Yowsa! This thing is HUGE! It measures 91" x 113". It's another missionary quilt and was started April 17, 2003 and finished June 20, 2003. It is no longer in my possession but I don't believe it's been given out to a missionary yet. This is a Quilt In A Day by Eleanor Burns pattern. Perle Cotton was again used to tie it, and it has a solid light blue backing. I loved how the colors looked together and the white was a geometric pattern that resembled the blades from a pinwheel. I wouldn't mind making one for myself but not so large. The photo was taken with it displayed on a queen-size bed.

  1. Hi Lee, thank you for visiting my blog and commenting. Nice to meet you. I spend a lot of time home alone. Our 5 kids are grown and out on their own. Dh works 2nd shift, so I have most of the afternoon and all evening here by myself. That is how I get so much hand quilting done. (grin) I sit in my rocker in front of the tv, quilting the hours away. The above quilt is just lovely. I have never made an Eleanor Burns pattern, but I do have one. I think it is called Lover's Knot. I will make it some day. LOL Have a good week.
