Churn Dash Happiness

Back in January, I asked the Happiness circle of Do. Good Stitches to make churn dash blocks in an earthy colour palette. I figured with Christmas and all the excitement of the holidays just past, we could use a simple project to ease us into the new year.

Fast forward to now and the quilt is finally done (although the constant snowfall makes me think it's still January some days).

My circle mates did a beautiful job with the blocks. I asked everyone to make one light on dark and one in the reverse and I love how it came out. For the quilting, I opted to use straight lines running the length of the quilt about 1/2" or so apart. I was so excited when I saw the texture to this quilt after pulling it from the dryer.

So good to have another project finished!
