Stairway to Heaven

Here is the Stairway to Heaven...

Stairway to Heaven


I really enjoyed working with these gorgeous fabrics from Island Batik Foundations.

Nature Inspired?


Stairway to Heaven was published in Annie's One Day Quilts.

One Day Quilts


When I think of easy patterns and quick quilts, I think of rail fence. 


Published


Choose fabrics carefully and let them do the hard work while you enjoy the compliments :-) 

Thanks to Island Batik for providing the fabrics and Thanks to Annies for publishing the pattern/quilt.

In other news, I have been working on the October Challenge for Island Batik, which is sponsored by Accuquilt. We have to make a quilt/project using the North Carolina Star Block on Board Die
I made an audition block. More to come.
