Next up is the Christmas quilt I made for my sister-in-law. We usually rotate through the adults in the mister's family so I knew well ahead of time that we'd have this particular couple for Christmas.
I asked my sister-in-law what colors she wanted and she requested brown and blue to match her bedroom. I had a fat quarter bundle of Riley Blake's So Sophie fabric that matched perfectly with what my SIL asked for. I added in a few more brown and blue prints and used the Labyrinth quilt pattern by Rita of Red Pepper Quilts.
I quilted the centers of each block with a flower design that radiated out. In the negative space, I quilted meandering loops.
For the backing, I used up the rest of the So Sophie fabric I had along with a couple other larger brown and blue cuts of fabric.
The quilt measures about 70 inches square.
