The Emily Munroe Quilt

 
Emily Munroe's Civil War quilt...
 
This is where I left off last year,
all the blocks basted together.


I'm using the 'potholder' construction
method to reconstruct the quilt.
 

 
Row one...
 
 
I ended up using a very thin batting...no quilting

 
 Before whip stitching the wool over the cotton backing
and then whip stitching each block to each other.

  1. I love the way it is put together, would be nice for quilting, without having to do the whole quilt at once.

  3. Stunning! I am anxious to see how you like this method. I have made 14 potholder quilts (so far) but they have all had added binding. I am anxious to try this method. I have started one but haven't put it together yet. Fingers crossed.
