This is the new quilt I have the first row on the flanel wall to see it and to make sure I put the block together correctly. The pattern is called Summer Breeze and is a queen size quilt 89 x 89 or in that range since I don't think my out side border fabric is as wide as the designers.

The pattern is designed by Wendy Congdon an her pattern company name is Truly Materialistic. I fell in love with this pattern a while back then waited to purchase it on sale from a local quilt shop. Country Calico up by Gunder, IA a fun shop that is out in the country and owned by Mary Anne Keppler.

So if you are heading out to take a drive this is a fun shop to go to and then there is a bar/resturant near by in Gunder called the Irish Shanty. They were on the Iowa PBS show recently for their huge Gunder Burgers and more.

So a fun idea for an outing.
