Drunkard's Path
84 x 96
Otherwise known as:
Down the Beaten Path
Let the Chips Fall Where They May
224 six inch blocks...
...sewn together randomly...
...in a 14 x 16 layout.
I haven't really looked but I don't think I have anything suitable for a backing. I'm hoping I will be able to piece one together from bits and pieces. What I would really like is a stripe and polka dot four patch backing.
I exceeded my March OMG (One Monthly Goal) which was to complete 36 six inch Drunkard Path blocks so I would have a total of 224+ for a quilt top. I made goal and then assembled the top too!

It is beautiful! I do think your blog title represents this quilt! Oh my. That is a lot of curved piecing!
Wow, this is one incredible quilt top! I don't think you even started it that long ago to have it finished so soon. That's a lot of stripes and polka dots! Great finish!
An amazing HAPPY quilt!
Love it! This is one of those blocks that really shapes up nicely when sewn to its neighbors. All the circles line up so well and become neat and orderly, allowing the wild and fun colors and spots and stripes to dance :)
The title of your blog post isn't quite right ... Let me fix it for you: It's a GORGEOUS Flimsy!

Totally gorgeous work! I just saw something similar in Robert Kiracoffe's book today. I'm gonna pin yours for inspiration if that's okay!

YOU ROCK! Thanks for the inspiration!
I love your uber-colorful quilt top -- and I like Down the Beaten Path as a name. Not sure why, I just do. I have some lime green and hot pink checkerboard yardage that I'll contribute for part of the backing (just let me know if you'd like it)
It's super! And now you are really, really good at curved piecing.
Nicely done - you crushed it this month! Very cool! :)
Wowza - this looks amazing. Thanks for linking up with Elm Street Quilts One Monthly Goal and congrats on your finish.
