Burgoyne Surrounded
93 x 93
Quilted on my DSM
I started this as a Rainbow Scrap Challenge project in 2017. I wanted to use up some miscellaneous scrap chunks of fabric so made blocks each month that primarily used the color of the month. For instance this block used up some blue chunks.
This block used up some pink scraps.
You can kind of see how I very simply quilted it on my DSM - first I quilted diagonally along the chains Then I quilted horizontally and vertically along the sides of the sashing and through the middle of each block.
Then since batting (pellon nature's touch 80/20) instructions require quilting no farther than four inches apart I added more vertical and horizontal lines through each block.
I did minimal quilting - it's difficult to wrestle a quilt this big through a DSM with a small harp.
I used wide bleached muslin for the backing and neutral scraps for the binding.
And I can mark another UFO off the list!

Love it!!!
Super nice finish! I totally agree about shoving queen size quilts through a tiny harp space. There's much to be said about walking foot quilting.
Round of applause! This one will be fun to sleep under, for sure! I'd put it on my bed immediately. Hope it's destined for yours.
Yay!!! Your Burgoyne looks wonderful! Thanks for all the inspiration!
Oh, I LOVE it!!! I drooled over that version.
Your brain and hands must be planning something all the time! Otherwise, I just don't see how you "throw" so many pretty quilts together so quickly! Nice job, again! ---"Love"
Congratulations! And you quilted it, a queen size, on your DSM.
My back would give me fits if I tried something like that, you must
have a good setup, like a chair the right height etc.
Super work.
A wonderful quilt, so full of scrappy rainbow colour! An quite an achievement quilting such a big quilt on your DSM, looks great!
I absolutely LOVE this one. LOVE. The colors are soft, but lively. I just love your work, but I really really LOVE this one.
It is beautiful! And you were able to use up some scraps for the blocks. I need to follow your lead. Nice finish!
A fabulous finish! I love the way the small squares diagonals stand out and simultaneously draw your eye to the rest of the design. An amazing job to quilt this size of quilt on your dsm!
Love this quilt, the colours, fabrics and pattern are all sweet, well done a great finish...especially wrestling in on the DSM!
Man, this is stunning! I’ve always wanted to make this pattern, but found it so daunting. Well done!
Hooray!! BS is finished! It looks fabulous, Cathy! I love the scrappy neutrals in the sashing. I think you've started a Burgoyne trend, too, as I've seen several others in progress.
So wonderful!
I LOOOOOOOVE it!!! Yours is much more colorful than mine, so I may have to start another one...
(How many BSs do you think you've inspired since you started this one? Lots and lots, I think!)
Very beautiful quilt! I need to make one of these soon.
A great finish Cathy, all quilted and bound - beautiful!
A great finish and I love this done Rainbow scrappy! A BS has long been on my To-Do list and now you've given me another option for making one.
Congrats on your finish--I love it! So fun and scrappy!
Such a great quilt. Love that center block especially. You nailed this one!!
Beautiful!
one of your most beautiful finishes ever! I LOOOOOOOOVE this quilt!! You are keeping it, right?
Well it's no surprise that this turned out well, but how beautifully all your scrappy blocks sit together.
I have this pattern bookmarked. I even have TWO magazines with the pattern because I saw one for only 10 cents at a garage sale. Someday... I just keep trying to force myself to finishing other things that I have already started. :) You know how that goes...
Gorgeous finish!
Great finish! This is such a good block for a scrappy quilt. I love how yours turned out.
I love the scrappy goodness! The pattern is a fabulous choice with your colors. On behalf of the Finish-A-Long crew, congrats on the finish, and thanks for joining in!
