Improvised Lap Quilt

The beauty of lap quilts is that they can double up as picnic mats or as a topper for a single bed.

This patchwork quilt is in an improvised layout in the colours of autumn/winter.  For the back of the quilt I used a print with a repat pattern in colours that compliment the front.

The patchwork has been quilted in wide vertical lines which is in keeping with the modern design of the quilt. 

I made the quilt on a domestic machine and finished it by hand.

Between the layers is good quality wadding.  The quilt is machine washable on a gentle setting.

The approximate measurements of this square quilt are W62" x L66" or W157.5cms cms x L168 cms.
