Mum wanted lots of colour and a simple design and I had some charm packs of solid colours from Connecting Threads, some of which were cut into 2.5" squares for a finished 2" centre square. The rest were cut into 1" widths, chain pieced into strips, and cut into 1" lengths for the strips of 1/2" finished squares. It was a bit fiddly for sure, but it has turned out just great and mum's very happy with it.
The backing is a solid chartreuse-coloured, 100% cotton fabric, quilted simply with straight lines following the sashing round each pieced square.
A label and a gentle wash - and we have our quilt.
