Hitomi 20 Report post Posted July 22, 2011 My daughter will be leaving soon for college, and I made this quilt for her (she wanted it bright and pink). I used the wool batting (love that stuff) and the new CL templates I bought from Marie. The pattern is from the cover of last month issue of "Quilter Magazine" except I added a small border. Cute and easy pattern to use with batik fat quarters. The label reads "Christina Maile Fear" Starting a new Chapter, Off the College, Love ya, Mom August 2011. I'll miss her but now I got a spare room for all of you to come visit me.LOL!
