I finished the quilt top for my son's twin size quilt. It turned out way more busy than I originally anticipated.
Even though it's very busy, I love all the fabrics in this. I have quite a bit of the older Sarah Jane fabrics, along with some Sweetwater, scraps from Joseph's quilt and other odds and ends. My son helped pick out quite a few of the fabrics and I filled in the rest. I think if I were to do it over, I would make the smaller squares more consistent. Instead of using low volume fabrics, I would use a solid white to break it up and give your eye somewhere to rest. Or just follow the pattern and use a color solid and a white solid. Just a thought.
I'm having trouble finding the perfect backing fabric so this one may be a while until it's quilted. But I'm hoping not too long.
Quilt Stats:
