This is the March Jelly Roll Party project at Ruth's Stitchery. It's been hanging above the register and apparently has received a lot of comments.
I love the look of batiks on black. The pattern is from my new favorite designers, Sassafras Lane Designs. It's called Main Street. Here is the pattern cover photo:
Hard to believe it's the same pattern, isn't it? I used Moda's Xanadu Batiks and Hoffman Bali Batiks #1895. Kristy Wolf of Wolf Creek Quilting (and the pattern designer!) did the gorgeous quilting. I really wish you could see it in person, it is gorgeous!
Linking up to Thank Goodness it's Finished Friday, this week hosted in Perth, Australia by Serena at Sew Giving.
And also, Can I Get a Whoop Whoop at Confessions of a Fabric Addict.
Next week this quilt will go off to Oregon to live with my great-nephew. I'm pretty sure he will like it!
