A Hand-Quilted Trip around the World

 

This pretty little Trip Around the World (gratitude to Eleanor Burns and her directions for this favorite pattern) was made from fabrics that play together nicely texturally.  I love the jewel tones, too.  I had to make the pattern smaller because I was working with leftovers and fat quarters.  This is 57” x 72” and a great size for napping.  Batted with wool, it was a pretty fast project to needle, about a month.

 
                          It’s a nice addition to my quilt ladder which doesn’t have much color.
