Our team member Sue is making this BOM for us and has the four blocks done and I thought I would share them with you.
She said the blocks are designed for intermediate quilters but was fun to do: “It’s not like the quilts I usually do, chain piecing and make all blocks the same, each one is different and interesting”.
I love the colors and when I was taking pictures of these blocks the reds popped out, the greens are gorgeous and the blues are wow!
Block 4 – this one is my favorite so far!

This quilt pattern is found in the book Layer Cake, Jelly Roll and Charm Quiltsby Pam & Nicky Lintott.
Old Gold uses one layer cake and one jelly roll to make the top and border. We were careful when we trimmed our seledges and didn’t waste any fabric and we had enough fabric left to make a scrappy binding!
The orginal quilt from the book was done in dark tone fabrics for a warm rich look. We gave it a light summerly look by using Moda’s Fresh Cottons by Fig Tree Quilts.
The quilt measures: 72″ x 80″ and was easy and fun!
Our quilt was beautifully quilted by Judith Kraker’s Quilting

Summer Wind is an older pattern (2004) I forgot I had until one of my team members (Sue) saw it and wanted to test it.
Here is a cute story about how Miss Rosie named this quilt pattern. She designed and pieced the quilt in the summer. She was also a baseball fan and was finishing her quilt while listening to the games. One of the “priceless” MasterCard commericals is about going to a baseball game, and “Summer Wind” by Frank Sinatra was the background music!
The quilt is just one big star and with row after row of pieced borders. The quilt can be made smaller/larger by subtracting/adding rows or borders to the quilt top.
Sue had the perfect fabric collection in mind:
April Cornell’s Nature Notebook.

Sue said the pattern was easy to follow with lots of pictures and written instructions.

Miss Rosie’s fabrics requirements are enough to make the “Summer Wind” pattern pictured above.
Sue had enough scrap fabrics left over to add our own extra inner border (French Braid) at the top and bottom to make this quilt finished size: 76″ x 88″.
