Designed especially for the Southern California Quilters Run (July 2008), this quilt pattern is very versatile. It is ideal for any scenic or theme fabric. The central section shows off the fabric while the border includes an interesting array of scenes captured from the fabric. Each block is different. The appliqué poppies are noted as being California’s State flower and are included in the design however you can simply add a quilting design of your own instead. This quilt pattern has instructions for various sized quilts and was available for the quilter’s run where over 1700 quilters viewed it in Timeless Quilts.

Price: $12.00
