Northwoods – 1999 & 2001

I made three Northwoods quilts for different young men in my life – two in 1999 and one in 2001.  These are flannel quilts with different scenes appliqued onto the blocks and on a larger panel in the upper center.

The appliques are fused down and then finished with buttonhole stitching.  To personalize the quilts, I appliqued the boys’ names in the border.  I machine quilted in the ditch and hand quilted in the large panel around the appliques.  These were fun and fairly easy quilts to make.

The pattern is “Ah! Wilderness” from Keeping You In Stitches.
