I saw this quilt hanging in one of my favorite quilt stores and fell in love! It is an
American Jane Pattern and I thought it would look great done in polka-dots. I got together with my
accomplice in quilting crime and we each picked our favorite polka-dots. After much consideration and deliberation we choose our top 40 dots, and got busy ironing, cutting, stripping and sewing.
I initially was intimidated by the hexagons, but once I learned it was made by strip piecing I was in heaven. This quilt got really interesting mixing and matching all the colors and dot patterns. I can't wait to finish it and get it on my bed!
I decided to add a final black border to the outside of the quilt so that it could be a fit little better on my king size bed.
It looks great! Pamela. Let me know when you are ready to quilt it.
