I really enjoyed making the Retro block from Camille Roskelley’s book, Simply Retro. The block is simple to put together and has a fun final look. The first one I made was with orange and purple. As I was making that quilt, I thought I’d make another with the red and white. This is the first time I made two of the same quilts back-to-back.
I had shown this quilt earlier as a work in progress and now here is the finished quilt. It has been cloudy and rainy so my pictures had to be taken inside. Wish they were a bit brighter – like the quilt – but oh well 🙂
My friend Sondra quilted these super cute daisies into the quilt. I love them!
Here are a few close-ups of the quilted daisies.
The back of the quilt is a minky fabric. Very, very soft!
