Thank you Harry Potter
The pattern for this quilt can be found here (Jack's Blocks pattern)
This quilt was designed and created for one of my little nephews. His sister received her quilt over a month ago and I hear he has been patiently waiting for his. (which reminds me… I never photographed his sister’s quilt.)
My sis-in-law chose the fabrics (love them!) and found an inspiration quilt for me to use. I really love how this quilt turned out. I hope Jack does!
And why did I title this post “Thank you Harry Potter” you ask? Because this quilt has been waiting for it’s binding for a few weeks. I had the binding machine stitched to the front of the quilt but I didn’t have the time to sit and do the hand stitching to the back… that is until my son decided to re-watch all of the Harry Potter movies. We are eagerly awaiting the final movie and I thought his Harry Potter movie festival idea was a good one. So I sat and finished this binding while watching The Sorcerer’s Stone.
Thank you Harry Potter. I have a feeling you will be helping me finish several quilt bindings in the next week.
The quilt’s finished size is 62” x 72” It is all washed and ready for delivery!
The pattern for this quilt (called Jack's Blocks) is now in the shop!

wow I love this one! the colours just work with the balance of the squares! I find working with browns really difficult at times but they work really well with the light greens and aqua tones in your quilt.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you about the color brown. Not usually one of my favorite colors to work with, but it is great in this quilt.
ReplyDeleteandy did you make up the pattern? love it! great colors. and the polka dot binding is yummy.
ReplyDeleteI did make up the pattern. Now I just need to find time to type it up and make it official! :) I love me a polka dot binding too.
