Aug's Quilt -- Amish

One of the best things about moving to the greater Seattle area? I could join a quilt guild. My second month, I turned in blocks for the block of the month and won! The pattern was an Amish-inspired block. I added a bunch more squares and turned it into a quilt for one of the kids. It also features my first attempt at machine quilting. I learned many things like squaring your quilt is important and using a sheet for a back just doesn't work. The end result though was wonderful. Here it is and a close up of a bit of the quilting.

Have you ever taken part in a group project like a round robin, brown bag or block of the month?
