Queen's Jewel Finished!

So much for my 2021 sewing queue. I have already finished the Queen's Jewel Quilt that was on my plan for next year. It took me two weeks from the day I started cutting it out.

Inspired by the Queen's Jewel pattern from Quick Quilts from Your Scrap Bag by Patricia Wilens.
I removed the outer border from each block and replaced it with a sashing.
I'm quite pleased Jeff was able to calculate the size of the triangles in the border and I got it put together. It turned out just like I hoped.

I've also assembled the backing and it's ready to go to the machine quilter as soon as she returns from her holiday vacation.

I found a really fantastic ruler for making Storm at Sea blocks so I think I will work on this quilt next. This was on my WOOFA list for 2020 so I'll be excited to get going on this one.
