The Quilt Under the Cat -- Jewel Box/Log Cabin Quilt

Because Kat asked...

Here is the Jewel Box/Log Cabin quilt Teensy was sleeping on.  I made it in April of 2012.  This is our winter quilt; it's made of wool, corduroy, velvet, velveteen, velour, and even a bit of heavy brushed doubleknit.  I put no batting in it, since it was so heavy already; but I don't think I'll do that again.  I'd like it better with batting; it would drape better, and the quilting would show up better.













And now...  wanna see the funny-looking back, too?  This is where I tried to use up all the rest of the wools, corduroys, and velvets in my stash.  (It's not gone, but I did make serious inroads on it -- went from three large bins down to one.)  This fabric was left over from the days when my sewing mostly consisted of clothing construction.
