Scrap Fantasy Medallion Finish

3 Comments

Yay! I finally finished Charlotte Hawkes’ 2020 mystery quilt! (I can’t find a link to the directions for this; Charlotte opened a new website and I don’t see it there.)

I pieced it January-April of last year, then put off quilting it for any reason I could find. The start of this year’s mystery (“Scrappy 4 Patch Stars“) finally prompted me to finish the old one.

At 84″ square, it just seemed so big. And the center really was a little tricky to reach on my Bernina 440QE. Once I had that done, the rest wasn’t bad.

It did use a lot of scraps. The only thing I purchased was the brown outer border fabric, and the feather fabric for the backing.

I’ll probably donate this eventually. Now on to the next one!

    Beautiful! I’ve missed being able to do Charlotte’s mysteries for a few years but working on this one. Have high hopes I’ll actually be able to finish it!
