Rosemary's 4-Patch Posie


This is a very beautiful quilt, made by Rosemary. 

About 5 years ago, I taught my friends at a retreat how to make the 4-Patch Posie quilt. The next year there were 20 or so 4-Patch Posie quilts for show-n-tell. I felt like a proud parent for sure. I think there has been at least one 4-Patch Posie at show-n-tell each year since then.

Jacobean is the panto I chose, Omni lite tan thread and Hobbs 80/20 batting. It's just as pretty as can be.

I'll quilt some more of Rosemary's quilts when i return from Kentucky, so be sure to check back next week.

What a lovely 4P posie! I remember when you were teaching that technique. I started one at home but didn't get very far. Maybe this year I can pull it out and give it another go! Beautiful quilting, Ruthie!
