Just the Basics Quilt-A-Long Finished!

 48 x 60

Leanne over at Devoted Quilter hosted a quilt a long over the last 6 months.  We've gotten to the end and now we have a beautiful finished quilt!  You can still get the directions if you'd like to participate.


I made mine a tad smaller than her lap quilt because I wasn't sure I had enough fabric to make the lap quilt.  But it's a good size and her pattern works for making a rectangle or a square quilt.


I got to use this cool fabric that has the names of Jesus on it.  I can't wait to use it again.  It's perfect for ministry quilts. Not sure if I'm just as crazy about the pieced back I made.  But it was a fast fix and I needed to get this one finished.


Thanks Leanne for hosting this great quilt-a-long!
