A free pattern for this quilt is available at www.blankquilting.com. These fabrics, named Newbury, are also featured in the Fall 2010 issue of Fabric Trends.

I love botanical prints so I was thrilled when Robert Kaufman fabrics asked me to design using this collection. Usually I watercolor with botanicals, but this was just as fun to create using my sewing machine. The free pattern will soon be on their website:www.robertkaufman.com

I used two blocks, Jack’s Delight and Buckwheat to make the design. I like to call it Jack eats buckwheat for breakfast. Marcus just calls it Western Trails. I often give funny names to my quilts while I am making them.
