Normally, I pretest all quilts (gotta make sure they work, right?) but my sister came down to do a craft show (she sells doll clothes) and she used the quilt last night (it's warm). She's getting the remaining Vikings fabric to make a Remote Caddy for my BIL.
The pattern is free and uses the Easy Angle ruler. Here's a link to that pattern. This was perhaps the very first pattern I bought and it took me all this time to use it. Don't know what was up with me as it is very easy.

Here's a closeup of the fabrics and the backing. The trees and backgrounds are all scrappy, mostly made from fat quarters and leftovers from other projects. I have 2 extra blocks somewhere. They will find their way to the orphan block quilt eventually.

Wow - that quilt looks so fabulous
Hi, I just found your blog tonight and I wanted to tell you that your quilts are lovely.
This turned out gorgeous! Lucky BIL!! :)
I am the sister who received this quilt/comforter, and it is still very warm and in like new condition, and we use it for about 7 months a year. The flannel backing is totally wonderful - I would never again be happy with a comforter that did not have flannel on the back. Having a queen size comforter on a full bed works very well - blanket stealing is minimized.
