Pandora's Box

Do you remember this?

When I told you I was making a Christmas present?

Below is the finished quilt

I am thrilled to bits with it.

It is the first 'proper size' quilt I have made; the others were small ones. 

It was a present to my son and daughter-in-law.

I think they snuggle under it in front of the telly, 

cos I have since found out their bed is a 5 footer!!

(have to go extra large on the next one!!) 

The reverse was this lovely batik patterned material from Doughty's

when they had a roadshow near us. 

I only did very simple straight stitch machine quilting.

The post title is because that is the name of the quilt from the 

'Jelly Roll Quilts' book by Pam & Nicky Lintott.

I just loved the colours in the jelly roll and am equally happy with the final result.

Someone told me I would get totally hooked, and I am.  I have several projects lined up 

and already have a stash of fabric to keep me going for several years!!
