My second quilt, a Trip Around the World, was made for my little sis in colors she requested. Blue, white and pink. I had finally shopped around enough to realize that the best way to learn to quilt was from a book, not a pattern. This was from Eleanor Burns book, Trip Around the World. In the next couple of years, I made several other quilts using her patterns as they were always very easy to make with easy to read and understand directions.
Thanks so much for your comment. I really love hearing from you and appreciate that you visit my blog. If you do not receive a response from me, please do not feel ignored. As an online quilt shop owner, I am sometimes very short on time!
Nice quilt Terri. Eleanor has always designed such nice patterns. I never machine pieced them but loved using some of her blocks.
