When visions of a bed quilt of Anna Maria Horner flannel started dancing in my head, I pushed through and finished an extra 38 blocks to go from a throw-sized quilt to one large enough for my queen bed. For more on the making of these magic number blocks, check out my previous post here.
I’m so glad that I made the extra blocks. I love the warm colors of these fabrics. The pinks, reds, and oranges are my favorites. Plus, can I just say that AMH flannel is no ordinary flannel?!? This flannel is so soft and thick. It is unlike any I have ever felt.
Now to piece 110 blocks into a quilt top. This could take me a while.
But, I’m planning for this quilt to be on my bed before the first cold wind of the season blows through North Carolina. Wish me luck!
Linking to W.i.P. Wednesday

And because this is North Carolina, you never know when that will be. Sew, good woman, sew!
Gosh, this magic number thing has me intrigued, making mental note to look further into it. (Dropping by from WIP Wednesday). Xx
Wonderful! This flannel really looks very soft. So – good luck! π Jolana
What Charlotte said! LOL Not that I know what whether is like in NC – I can't wait to see these beauties all sewed up π

Can't wait to see the finished top.
Beautiful blocks. Beautiful fabrics. I can hardly wait to see this finished! I will be signing up for your blog.
Lovely colors for a winter quilt – it will be fabulous to have it done when it gets cold. I'm taking a cue from Charlotte: turn off the computer and commence to sewing!
Oohh…. that is some lovely, lovely flannel! It seems like all the flannel I see around my LQSs is kiddie or Christmas prints. That's going to be one snuggly quilt… though I'm not so sure about the cold winter winds that blow through your (according to Wikipedia) subtropical highland climate. Mightn't you be a little too warm? You should send that lovely northward! π
What a lovely stack of blocks!!! It's going to be a gorgeous quilt for sure and so snugly on your bed π

This quilt is going to be so gorgeous and soft. Beautiful colors and fabrics too. I love the needle book you made for your daughter.
This is going to be beautiful!!! You're going to be sleeping way more comfortable than me in my plain old quilts. ha ha ha!
Ooh, Nicole – it's looking good!!!
Ooh, I'm betting that's going to be snuggly!
Just looking at those warm, cozy colors will make you feel warmer. It'll be a beaut! π
