I do like how the outside design on the napkins creates a secondary pattern around the center burgundy block, made from fabric donated by Judy. The red border was also some yardage from Judy.
This quilt is named for the huge "shoo fly" block in the center.

Great idea - I do love the way the four napkins create another border. Very, very pretty. And another UFO challenge scratched off!!
ReplyDeleteThat was perfect use of those napkins! I think you nailed it and as you know I was thinking you might do something like this!
ReplyDeleteLove this one!!!
ReplyDeleteI think this was a great way to use the final four napkins. They really are very beautiful and are showcased like this.
ReplyDeleteWow! That is such a striking quilt. Using all four napkins created a lovely design. I, too, love the borders in each one.

Congrats on completing your challenge! They've all been great quilts.
ReplyDeleteHow super fun! Great job using these!
ReplyDeleteWho would have ever thought of using napkins for quilts. So clever!
ReplyDeleteNow that I think about it Daddio was always trying to steal cloth napkins from restaurants and hospital telling me he could use them for quilting. I blamed it on the dementia. Maybe he had something there after all!
This is a great way to highlight the napkins and make a beautiful quilt, too!
ReplyDeleteNice job!
The eagle napkins work very well in the large shoo fly bock, congratulations!!
ReplyDeleteThey look beautiful all together. This might be the prettiest one of them all.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering why it was called a ShooFly quilt. It makes perfect sense once you explained it.
I like the effect of the swirly lines in the napkins! Well done! :)
ReplyDeleteI got tired of working with red, white and blue quilts last summer. I've got one started but it's going to stay on the UFO list for a while.
