Country Crossroads
Quilt of Valor
59 x 68 inches

Not counting the black border, this quilt has 1,107 pieces - lots of seams. An earlier post shows some of the process involved in making this quilt, from scraps and a bit of new fabric.

I like how the yellow HSTs combined with the 36 patch blocks create a lattice.

    Yikes, it's easy to get lost in that one. So much visual detail.

    I know you won't believe it, but this is my new favorite! That's awesome. The yellow really makes the other colors pop.

    What a gem of a quilt! Scrappy quilts always tug at my heart. That cheddar is such a great choice - it sets your blocks off so nicely.
