Here is the second quilt I made for my nephew when he got married in 2009. It is the "Broken Bricks" pattern from M'Liss Rae Hawley's book
Fat Quarter Quilts. I really like the colors.
This was my first experience with strip piecing and I enjoyed it very much. I started this quilt late on a Wednesday evening and finished the binding on the way to the reception on the following Saturday afternoon. I believe this still stands as my fastest finish.
This is the back. I stabilized the quilt with SID between the rows and then did a loopy line. This was my first and last attempt at SID. I do not like the way the back looks with the combination of both stitches. And, of course, SID is tedious to stitch.
