Bohemian Rhapsody

I LOVE this quilt!  It just made me smile when I finally put those last stitches into the binding back in March 2016.  I know it's not to everyone's taste - and to be honest, I have gotten a lot of wishy-washy feedback, but BasicGrey (the creator's of this fabric line) has been a favorite design company of mine since I discovered them in scrapbooking!
This is Bohemian Rhapsody made with the Mon Ami fabric line.  The pattern comes from the Book Country Girl Modern by Jo & Kelli of Jo's Country Junction, a really fun farmy-quilty-family blog to read!
A really simple  construction technique made this quilt really fun to make!  It's a great design for medium to larger scale prints - they really pop!  For the label, I showcased a few of the BasicGrey fabrics and finished it up by quilting a big daisy pattern all over.

Disclosure: I received supplies to make this project from Jackman's Fabrics in Fairview Heights, IL.  The quilt will be hung as a shop sample in their store to promote sale of both the pattern and fabric lines.  In exchange, the quilt will be returned to me and becomes my property at the end of the promotion.  They did not require me to write a positive review of any of the products.  The opinions I have expressed are my own.  I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255 <http://www.access.gpo.gov/nara/cfr/waisidx_03/16cfr255_03.html> : “Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.”
