Finally my Quilt-in-Box guild project quilt is complete! Our guild started this project in 2019 but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the blocks weren’t all done until last fall. There is information about this project in my posts from November 5, 2020 and November 12, 2020.

This quilt has both free-motion quilting and straight line quilting. Some blocks have both, while others just have one type of quilting. Here are some of the blocks to show the details.

There is a fair breeze in the ship’s sails and rolling waves in the water. I added portholes too.

The house in the center of this log cabin block is in a leafy neighborhood and there are puffy fair weather clouds overhead. The foxes are napping in the nearby wood and the otters are playing in the eddies in the stream.

There are fires lit in both hearths in this home. The roof has scalloped shingles on the roof and rough-hewn timber cladding. I added a 6 panel window to the door to make sure there is lots of light inside!

There is straight line grid work in the Whimsical Whirlwind block with free-motion quilting in the negative space.

The quilt backing is a French fabric with a design which is in keeping with all the tiny woodland animals in the fabrics of this quilt.

I designed the fabric with the little houses which is in many of the blocks. It is called “Little Houses” available at Spoonflower.com. Here are the links to “Little Houses” with the white background and and blue background.

This was a great quilt guild project, one which I’d be happy to do again! Many thanks to all the members who made blocks for my quilt!
