Lattice 4-Patch - A Work in Progress

Good morning!

Today, I'm sharing a fun quilt that I've just *almost* finished.  I'm hand stitching the binding down now, so I should have finished pictures for you by Friday. <3

For this project, I used Handmade by Bonnie & Camille (can you tell I'm a big fan of Bonnie & Camille yet?) and this pattern tutorial by Jenny Doan of Missouri Star Quilt Co.

I'll admit that I did need to take a little more piecing time.  Sewing on the bias can be a little tricky, but it's so worth it with this pattern!


Laying it out was a little tricky...I wanted the super scrappy look, but I didn't wants spots like that white/red block with the green block that have the same print.


Here's what I ended up with for the top!


I love the size of this one.  It's roughly 58" x 68".  This is my daughter's twin bed.  It could be great for a kid without being too big.


I decided to do straight line quilting, so I broke out some painter's tape to mark parallel lines on every other black line.  This gave me even spacing without marking the quilt.  I also quilted along the sides of all other black lines and then I ditch stitched across the centers of all the diamonds.

I'll should have the finished project to show you on Friday!  Have you tried this pattern before?  Do you love Bonnie & Camille?  Let me know in the comments!

In the meantime, have a blessed day!

  3. I love using blue tape to mark for quilting. I love the bold graphic design the lattice creates. I always admire Bonnie & Camille fabric, but I'm not sure I own any.
