Golden Quilts
From McCall's Quick Quilts July 2005

True Colors
Designed by Pearl Louise Krush

Finished Wall Hanging Size
30 1/2" x 38 1/2"

Greetings from Pearl Louise! The flower-filled hanging baskets on the front porch of our quilt shop, The Thimble Cottage in Rapid City, South Dakota, were the inspiration for this charming wall hanging, made of flannels by Troy. The quilt is easy to make and the iron-on polka dot posies, ladybug and butterfly add a happy touch. Enjoy!
