Hugs & Kisses ICC #4

This is my version of the Hugs & Kisses quilt,  free patttern can be found here ........


I used 3 fabrics, a celery green print for the background, a lovely green and a lovely pink/orange print for alternating blocks.  It really makes a pretty quilt.  I pieced and assembled it over 2 afternoons   I may make another one once I get over my disappointment of having to trim the blocks down to a smaller size.  I used the strip/stratta method to make this one.  I may try traditional cutting/piecing next time.  I have the perfect fleece print for a backing and it is now in my ' waiting to be sandwiched' pile.



I'm sharing today with Connie at Freemotion By the River  and  

Wednesday sharing with  Susan of Quilt Fabrication   and  Lorna at Sew Fresh Quilts.

Be sure to visit these sites to see what other quilters are sharing today.  
Thanks so much for stopping by.

    Kat, that's lovely! But, are you sure the background is a "celery green print"? LOL, it looks quite white to me. Regardless, it's lovely!

    That is just lovely. I made a quilt last year in very similar colours and it's a fun combination. Thanks for sharing.
