Bloggers Quilt Festival - Scrappy Quilts

This is my Entry for the Scrappy Quilt Category.... although sometimes I wonder if the quilts made from the scraps of these scraps will get done lol!

So... This is my Plaid Quilt. It is a Jacob's ladder pattern, I used the Floribunda instructions from Bonnie Hunter at Quiltville.com


It is called Better with Cheddar


It started out as a Jacobs Ladder Quilt a Long - and then everyone else finished theirs and I was still going,,,,,


And then one day - I had 4 plaid projects in motion - so I thought I had better finish one.... a girl has to feel accomplished somehow!!

And now! It is done!! and I am still working on the others


Go check out all the other entries in the scrap quilt category

Isn't it amazing that the cheddar color floats above the plaid? Such an interesting effect. Thanks for showing it.

I LOVE that quilt! The 3D effect is great. That cheddar grid just floats right off that fabric.

What a wild effect. It looks like the gold is stenciled on over the colored blocks. What fun!
