Cotton + Steel Stash Buster

I've kept this one under wraps for a little while, but now it has been gifted so I can share with you.  I made this quilt for my niece for Christmas and she loved it!  It's a simple pattern with rectangles using quite a few fat quarters of Cotton + Steel fabrics.  I love the color scheme on this one.


This is a simple design that doesn't require much concentration, so it's perfect for a quick sew.



I used a Cotton + Steel basic XOXO in navy for the back and it is quilted in an aqua colored thread.


Each block finishes at 9 inches square, so the quilt is 63" x 81".  Quilting by AB Quilting Studio.  

This was one of two gifts I made this year, and was a finish for Quarter 4 of the 2016 Finish-A-Long


This quilt was inspired by Marissa at GoBeWonderful, see her original here.
