Nest Quilt



 A few weeks ago I cut up my Nest layer cake.  This weekend I finally finished the quilt and I LOVE it!  I made wonky 9 patch blocks sashed with KONA snow.  The blocks felt tedious and I don't think I would make them again.  Although I like the result so we'll see what happens!

This was a perfect quilt to use a layer cake.  It turns out pretty big, 67 inch square, great for snuggling on the couch!  I used a brown polka dot back and a solid bright green binding.  I love it!  The green gives such a great pop against the white and the brown back too.  This quilt is my new favorite (plus it matches my Wall Hanging)
