Here is a quilt I just finished today, it is called "Trip Around the World". I used the Eleanor Burns Quilt in a day pattern for it. Of course, my quilt was not finished in a day...more like 2 weeks. I have made a Trip Around the World baby quilt in a day but this is a full size quilt for my guest room/sewing room/computer room. I wanted something bright and bold. I do feel slightly selfish making something for me with holidays quickly approaching, but I couldnt wait!!
Now the hard part..borders. I hadnt really even given it a second thought when I started because I knew what I wanted the bold colors to be.
I am going to the Amish Quilt Shop Hop in Holmes County on Thursday...hopefully I will get some little Amish lady to point the perfect fabrics for my borders.

Great quilt! I am chiming in with Lola, as I tried to reply to the comment you made on my blog, but you are set up as no-reply. If you go to I Have a Notion blog, she has directions on how to fix the no-reply. Oh and btw, maybe I will see you at the Amish Shop Hop :-)
Thanks ladies! I believe I have corrected the problem.
And Maybe I will see you at the Amish Quilt Shop Hop...hint..we are sticking to the 5 closes to Berlin.:)
Beautiful quilt! I love the trip around the world pattern.
Happy quilting,
Susan
