My Pattern - Flippin' Bowtie

This quilt was my own design. I called it the flippin' bowtie quilt. I made the smaller one (above) and entered it into a contest but didn't win. It was quite a learning experience to try to figure out the measurements for each piece to make it come out just right. Needless to say, in the beginning I had a few "weird" looking squares before I got it just like I wanted it. This is the small wallhanging I entered into the contest. It is currently for sale on my 2009 - For Sale post if you are interested.


This is a larger lap quilt made from the same Flippin' Bowtie pattern. It was made with only 3 fabrics, red, white, and blue and the fabrics are patriotic fabrics so it can be used around the 4th of July and other patriotic holidays. It was finished with pieced red, white and blue binding.
