Ritzy Quilting Company received in the Wild Orchid line of fabric earlier this month. I made a quick shop sample. Very quick. In just 2 hours I had the center of the quilt pieced. The pattern is “The Easiest 3 Yard Quilt Pattern Ever!” by sewcanshe.
I tweaked the borders, cutting the inner border 2 1/2″ and the outer border 4 1/2″. When purchasing the fabric I opted to get an extra 1/4 yard of each fabric.
After binding the quilt I took it up to the shop where it hangs on the wall behind the display of the fabric.

I made this quilt as part of the Kansas Troubles Quilter Quilt A Long. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten a holiday quilting finished timely. Currently it is hanging on the quilt rack in my bedroom waiting to be put on the bed.
