49" x 63"
this quilt was inspired by heather. (thanks friend!) last year when she made a Christmas tree skirt, she used a mini happy hour block rather than the log cabin block. i LOVED it and i just knew i would have to make a quilt using that idea someday. i like how the pattern is modern and the fabrics are soft and feminine. thanks to jessica for two of the fabrics that i won from her giveaway a few months ago. and thanks to beth for a yard of the tracy porter fabric that i received in a swap. it's fun to see my quilt tops come together and see how many friends have contributed to the final product. it makes my sappy heart happy. :)
now i had better get quilting before i get a back log of quilt tops hanging around here again. :)
Such a pretty quilt! Pink is my favorite color. I think it always was. This really is a soft and feminine quilt!

ReplyDeleteHi. What am I missing here? -- I don't see instructions for a mini happy hour block (on your page or on Heather's). Can you direct me?
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your wonderful posts and pictures.
jean,
ReplyDeletehappy hour is a published pattern, so i can not share that information here. the book is called happy hour by atkinson designs. i hope that helps!

I love the Happy Hour pattern. I like the soft, pretty fabrics you used in this quilt top. It looks great!

ReplyDeletewhat a pretty quilt! I love the soft colors that you used in this!

ReplyDeleteGreat, calming colors -- it looks cuddly even now!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous! Love the pattern, I'm currently piecing a lap quilt Happy Hour for my sister's birthday.
ReplyDeleteCan you provide the pattern/measurements for this mini quilt? Pretty please!
It is stunning - love the color palette & simplicity of it.
o, i love it. it looks so pretty sitting in the grass!
ReplyDeletekristen in Oklahoma,
ReplyDeletei can not share the measurement for this pattern as the happy hour block is a published pattern. even though this is smaller, i still don't feel that it is my place to share that info. i can tell you that it's about 50% of a normal happy hour block.

How did I miss this? It's beautiful!
