    Default Mock Cathedral Window

    Okay, I will say I have not been too big a fan of the Mock Cathedral Window quilts so far. You know the ones made with circles sewn together with the edges folded back. I think it has something to do with the fact that I know how much work and effort go into a real Cathedral Window. Yes, I have a half done one that will probably never get finished. Maybe I should just shoot for a bedrunner on it and call it a day. I have the same issue with the Double Wedding Ring quilts too - old school vs. the rings that bind, etc. although some of the appliqued Wedding Ring quilts are gorgeous, I still have a hard time seeing it as a real one.

    BUT <-- that is a big but.

    I saw this picture tonight and I'm thinking that a Mock CW might just be someplace in my future. I do really, really like this made with a 4 patch on the backside. Plus it sure makes a reversible quilt.

    I love it! I want to make one with denim to throw in the car for the beach. I was going to donate the fabric but this will be perfect for it.

    I love your big but. Well, you know what I mean. I always felt the same way about this quilt. I even stored fabric for one for ever and then used it for something else because I just couldn't stand the thought of having to make one of them. This one has me wanting to go and buy fabric for it right now. I will finish one now. I will I will!

    That's a great looking quilt and would be a great one for using scraps up!

    Is that made with the Less Than Traditional templates?
