My sister Megan has always loved a similar quilt that I made for myself. She says she wants to steal it every time she visits. SO- I decided to make her one for her birthday. I took my quilt to the fabric store and tried to find the exact same fabrics, I managed to find 6, and the rest I had to just find similar ones. I usually don't do presents this large, but being that this year has been a stressful one for the whole family, I wanted to do something a little special this year. She was very surprised and she loved it, that made the whole thing worth it.
If you're wondering, there are 25 different colors. Each square measures about 2 1/2 inches.
