I'm excited to be blogging about my first and only king size quilt that I made back in 2008 that I haven't shown before.

While attending the Atlanta Shop Hop in 2008 with my mom, I noticed a beautiful quilt hanging in the center of a cute quilt shop in Marietta. I found below it some kits to make the same queen size quilt exactly like what was hanging. I just knew I had to buy it but also remembered that I had 11 additional quilt stores to go to during our 2 day quilting adventure. All I could think about was this quilt and that I had to buy it. Luckily for me, I ended up going back and buying the last kit plus additional fat quarters to make it a king size quilt.
When I started out with this quilt, it was going to be our main quilt for our master bedroom. Today, it sits on the end of our bed on top of a coverlet. Even though my tastes of fabric and colors have changed since 2008, I still love my quilt.
I'm linking up over at Amy's Creative Side for Bloggers' Quilt Festival - Fall 2011. Come check out the 470+ submitted quilts. Thanks Amy!!
