I started with 20, 5" by 5" squares and made ten scrappy log cabins, measuring 16" by 16". Then I took the last ten squares and framed them in white. I have so many white scraps!
I did a scrappy back too, and used my favorite color green for the binding.
Yesterday we had a big storm, and we were under this quilt all day.
My next project is going to be another quilt for us. I can not wait to get started on it.

This is so pretty! I love how the green stands out against the black and the white. Glad you have caught the quilting bug!!! Can't wait to see what you make next...

Oooh - I love it, too! Love it!
What a great picture of the kids under the quilt! I never made quilts for our family until last year. Then I made one for fall (lots of browns/orange), a Christmas quilt, and Amy Butler's brick quilt with lots of Heather Bailey fabric for spring/summer. Now I'm so very glad I did. Keep quilting for your family!
Once again a lovely blanket and I smiled when I saw your kids having such a great time!
and that everyone can get under it! love that.
What a beautiful quilt - I love the colours! Doesn't it just come alive when the kids are under it!
I LOVE the backing on that quilt:

How fun! I love it. Great color scheme. And cute kids.
It is a fabulous quilt! I'm looking forward to seeing the next one.
Oh I love the quilt! Great job! I am really wanting to make a quilt- I am in love with a quilt on Garnet Hill's website (State Fair Quilt) and want to make that one...only my version.
I bet you'll finish your 2nd quilt before I start my 1st ;)
This quilt is going on my inspiration board...I want one so similar to curl up under. And I could just die for that pieced back...I love pieced backs so much!
It is beautiful, and the kids look so happy under it! I love the green and black together!

I love it and it looks like the kido's do to. I also enjoyed your previous post about daughters cloths, very cute! my mom made lots of my cloths when I was little too. and they were always my favs.
I really love this quilt. The bold colors against the white make me swoon! Doesn't hurt that green is my most favorite color, too. I love the idea of you all snuggled under it all day. So cute!
