Squares quilt: small double bed size, quilted by me both in the ditch and diagonally. This was one of my earliest attempts at quiltmaking, though bound in February, 2000, when it was sold. the colour scheme isn't as successful as i had hoped: I was aiming for warm colours, reds, browns, and yellows to finish off each block, but somehow got too enthusiastic and some colder blues and greens slipped in, which doesn't achieve the look i was after. Still, it has a sort of folksy charm to it, and I think it's a pattern that I'll revisit at some point (see Linda's Quilt).
