Brett's Quilt


This is the small lap size quilt that I made for my grandson Brett.  He turned 15 yesterday.  Where have the years gone?  The idea for the pattern came from Morning Glory Designs.  Her blog is http://katlovesquilts.blogspot.com/ .
She had a block of the month called "Midnight Posies" using black background and pieced 10 1/2 inch squares.  I used some of her blocks and some of my own ideas.  She also has an appliqued flower border, but since this was for a 15 year old boy I decided to make a piano key border and used all the fabrics that were in the quilt for the border.

I have the centre panel of "Bear River" quilt up on the design wall.  I finished all 6 bearpaw blocks so I decided to put it together and see how it turned out.  So now I have to add the borders and make it grow to double bed size.
