Grandpa’s Best Quilt

christine4

This is Christine’s Grandpa’s Best quilt and the pattern is by Perkins Dry Goods.  She altered the pattern a bit so it has a strong diagonal design instead of the alternating diagonal design of the original pattern.   This is a great scrappy quilt and Christine used Buggy Barn style fabrics for her quilt.   We decided on Happy Times for the panto design and So Fine thread.   She sent nice cozy flannel for the backing and a mid loft poly batt.
