It's a finish!
Sixteen Patch
63 x 84
Started December 2024.
10.5 inch blocks made with 4 inch width strips. I used plaids and florals. That combination reminds me of my grandmother's quilts made of old dresses, aprons, and shirts.
I quilted on the diagonals through the plaids.
The binding was floral and so was the backing.
And sew on...

Gorgeous - and what a perfect snowy backdrop. I agree about the combination of plaids and flowers - my grandmother always wore a flowery apron.
I really like the plaids and florals combo, Cathy!! Just a lovely finish --it does look like Grand-mere's aprons;))) Hugs, Julierose
Absolutely a gorgeous quilt! My grandmother always wore an apron when cooking. What a lovely memory you inspired. Jenny
16 patch always looks good!!
Such a pretty quilt, Cathy! I like the florals and plaids together.
Such a sweet quilt! Aren't 16 patch quilts terrific?
The plaids and flowers are a great combination!
I love the mix of plaids and flowers! Puzzled by the math however - if starting with 4" strips it would be a 14" finished block? Were they 3" strips?
