I was looking for a quilt pattern that had a center medallion that could pass as a cross. I came across this one by Judy Niemeyer called Gooseberry Garden.
The only problem is that it is 48" X 48" and I want a bed size quilt. So, I am adding borders. This is the first few borders- the tan and then 4 patches.
Today I am working on flying geese for the next layer. Almost finished those.
Then there will be another border of tan followed by half-square triangles. The last wide border will be the cream color onto which I will applique the vines, leaves and flowers that are on the center of the quilt on the pattern. If my measurements end up accurate, the final quilt will measure 105" X 105". Obviously this one will take a while to get the applique done.
That quilt does look like a cross in the center, and it is great. I just love flying geese. And....your pineapple quilt is just gorgeous!!!!!!!
