Takes the Cake by Thimbleblossoms

 
Don't you just love granny squares? I adore them!
so I really like this Takes the Cake quilt pattern that looks like granny squares. It's taken a while, but I'm finally done!
 
The fabrics are Vintage picnic and Life is good and various matchy scraps...
It was one of those things you didn't realize
what I was when you picked it up......
 
 
 
you start out with sweet little piles of squares so pleasing to the eye....
by the way, about 1,200 of them!!!
 
Organize them into the EnTIre quilt..
 
and sew them into 9 squares and H shaped squares....
each one has to go right next to it's neighbor!...
I got this shot of the organization of putting it together, but I forgot to lay down the single row that goes in between the main rows I layed out here.
If you use your imagination, you can picture what's missing....
 
 
Each square was a surprise and a pleasure to see how it came together.
 



 
as always....Polka dots!!
