Sonoma Quilt
Completed:  June 2015
Pattern:  "Sonoma" quilt designed by Camilla Quilts
Quilt Size:  55 x 75" (52.5 x 71" after shrinking)
Block Size:  8.5 x 7" finished
Fabric: Always Blooming by Susy Pilgrim Waters for P&B Textiles focus fabric; white on white Ramblings Weave background fabric.  Purchased most fabrics at Weaver's.
Technique:  Pieced blocks and glue basted onto batting that measured 1" wider all around each rectangular block.  Quilted four-block units using quilt as you go method. Attached pieced backing using "stitch-in-the-ditch" technique.  Hand stitched binding using a ladder stitch. 

Tutorial:  How to square up half-square triangles
Notes: This quilt was created for my sister's historic Cape Cod home in Provincetown, MA.  The fabrics reflect summertime ocean colors and wintertime snowfall.  The focus fabric that looks like a water color painting reminded me of fabric my mother used to make one of my sister's many prom dresses.

CARE - 100% cotton fabric; machine wash and tumble dry. All Thread Projects quilts are pre-washed in cold water and pre-shrunk in a hot dryer before gifting.
