Quick trip quilt

Post by Rosie5 » Mon May 15, 2017 7:50 am

Hi I am new to quilting.
I just love watching all of eleanors quilting programmes. She makes such beautiful quilts.
Two questions I would like to know please.
What fabrics did Eleanor use to make the quick trip quilt, and how much of each fabric do I need as I would like to make a king size quilt.
Thanks

There are several books and patterns with that quilt in it. She used fabrics from when she wrote that book. The fabtics most likely are no longer available, but just look at the pictures in the pattern for ideas on print scales and colors. The books are available here on her website.

All the sizes for quilts and fabric requirements are in the book. She does a fantastic job on her instructions. Each step is clearly laidvout.

Good luck
Jana

The book title is "Quick Trip Quilts", published in 2006. I made one of her Quick Quarter Quilts from that book back in 2007. Loved it so much I will be making another one soon. Enjoy.
