A little over a year ago Melissa ask me to make her a black and white quilt. They have a king size bed and she wanted it to be a bed spread. So I started to buy black and white prints. I learned you have to be careful that the white isn't a off white. Can I add a color to it. No was always the answer.
Then I found this twister pattern, easy I could do it. Afraid I would get lost in the size she wanted and get all the pieces mixed up. Big block was my answer. Each block would be 30 plus inches. The plan was put into action. A year sewing and buying more fabric I saw it completed. Off to a quilter to have it machine quilted. Then wait until her birthday to give it to her. Here it is.
I made five pillows all sizes made out of the scraps.
It was so much fun to make. But never again will I make one this size.
Happy Birthday Lizzy.

Wow!!!! I love it and can only imagine how much Melissa loves it! Great job!
It's beautiful! Melissa is a lucky girl. Did you and my mom consult about this quilt? She's working on one that is similar.
