London topper




I enjoyed the Olympics so much this year, that I decided I must make a little something in honor of the event. Fortunately, I found all but the Union Jack fabric at one stop, Rosie's in San Diego.


It's kind of a funky quilt design. And the original pattern didn't call for an outside border, so it looks a little tacked on.  But the quilt whipped up in an evening and made me smile when I was finished.  I think I'm going to have it quilted with overlapping circles (to somewhat mimic the Olympic rings) and bind it in red. The backing fabric is mini houndstooth in black... why, of course
