Frame Quilt – Quilt Along

To make the Frame Quilt you will need the following:

• 1 yard of three patterns of fabric
• 1/2 yard of two patterns of fabric
• 1 yard of matching solid fabric or a Layer Cake (15 pieces)
• Backing Fabric – 4 yards (more if you make a larger quilt)
• Binding Fabric – 1/2 yard
• Matching Thread
• I will have my quilt finished by my longarm quilter and she provides the batting.
• Basic Sewing supplies (scissors, sewing machine, etc)

The Fabric I’m using is:  Habitat by Michele D’Amore for Benartex

It’s a fabric that I’ve had a long time!  The solid blue fabric didn’t have a name on the salvage and I’ve also had it for several years.
