Jo Morton Quilt



I've set this week aside for UFOs. This is a quilt from the Jo Morton "Jo's Little Women Club". I joined the club at a local quilt store this spring. However, with our travel schedule, I have been unable to attend most of the meetings. This quilt pattern is from the first meeting - Patriotic Broken Dishes. The fabric is also Jo Morton. As usual, I made adjustments to the pattern. The mini-quilt measures about 17" x 20" and is machine pieced and quilted with stitch-in-the ditch.


I haven't done alot with traditional quilting recently. I completed the quilt top while at our vacation home in Kentucky in April and just today added the binding. Now I'm adding the backing and binding to another mini quilt made of Civil War fabric.
