Great Granny Quilt Finish

"Ta Dum"!
A finish on my Great Granny quilt!

58" X 71"
I made mine a little bigger with 20 blocks, a nice throw size.

Lori's (Bee In My Bonnet) original was 9 blocks, but I was having so much fun I just kept going.

Seriously, these were so addicting to make.

I especially liked using my scraps.
A perfect quilt to use up what you have.

Of course I needed to use a little bit of Lori's Sew Cherry Fabric (for Riley Blake)

Thank you again Lori and Jodi for such a fun Quilt Along.
I've loved sewing with you the last few weeks.
It almost made me feel like the good old days when we were in the same room, ooohing and aaahing over each others blocks.
Lets do this again!

I do like the granny quilt pattern. I may have to see about making a square for a sampler quilt or perhaps a table runner.
