What's on my bed


Nicole over at Sister's Choice Quilts posed the question about "What's on your bed?" I thought I'd play along.

I've got Autumn Leaves on the bed right now. Remember this quilt? It's made using Bonnie's String X pattern. I've made 5 or 6 using this pattern and have always given them to charity. This is the one I kept. It is 120x120". Huge! But has a wonderful drop on the sides.

Here's a detail shot.


See that wall behind the bed? In the middle of winter, at the coldest, I usually hang a quilt on that outside wall. It does seem to help on the coldness in the room.

  6. 120 x 120 - huge, for sure - but no dust ruffle or shams required . . . I like it *s*
