Big Block Throw

Have large prints you don't want to cut into smaller pieces? Try this quilt, where bold botanical prints are perfectly showcased in 18" squares. This quilt features two collections from FreeSpirit Fabrics-Prairie Gothic by Jane Sassaman and Park Slope by Erin McMorris. Editor Elizabeth Tisinger used this quilt as inspiration to make a pillow. Visit Elizabeth's blog to learn more about her version.
