Shadow Box Squares

 robin1

Even thought I do take the summer off from quilting for clients I will sneak a few quilts in for friends, especially those that like to barter with homemade treats!   This is Robin’s Shadow Box quilt and I used the panto Splash for this quilt as I think this quilt should be called “Splash of Color” as she used so many beautifully bold batiks.  The squares are 8” finished and this is a great way to use up scraps.  I found an online tutorial on how to make this quilt here.  This one is on my To-Do list!

Here is a peek at the backing which is a batik too.
