Bear Paw Finish

Bear Paw (or Big Foot?)
63 x 84
It's a finish!

This is one of five quilt tops I made back in November 2019 (has it been that long?) to clear out a bin of "Autumn stuff". 

"Autumn Stuff" for this one included some 6.5 inch squares. 

I quilted in some leaves in brown thread. 

The binding is a scrappy mix of leafy browns.

The back is a brown woodsy print that wasn't quite wide enough so I added a strip of 6 inch squares.

Now it is ready for donation.

And sew on...

Bears Paw, Big Foot, whatever, it's a delightful quilt and will be well lived in it's new home. I have one I bring out to put on the back of the couch in Autumn, swap blocks made with lots of browns, gold and greens, oops, its Autumn here now

LOVE how the bear paws are scrappy while the toes of each "4-Patch" match! Such a nice way to calm the beast, Cathy.
