One Block Wonder Tulips

 I picked up this tulip fabric at a quilt shop quite a few years ago.  I really didn't need any fabric, but I walked by it a few times, then picked it up and carried it around and the rest is history.  I bought enough repeats to make a one block wonder.

 The shop also had beautiful fabrics to go with it and I picked up a lot of fat quarters just in case I might 'need' to make cubes to go into the quilt.

The cubes are definitely going into the quilt!

I tried various layouts, but nothing was really speaking to me.

I liked the clusters of cubes in it, but it wasn't large enough yet for a nice lap quilt.

After much rearranging, I was happy with the layout.

A closeup of the lovely quilting that my friend across the street, Chris Bogart does for me on her long arm machine.  It is bound with the original fabric and a piece is also incorporated into the backing.
