Simply Flying Quilt Pattern!

Here's the first quilt in my 2021 Simply series.  Introducing Simply Flying!  I made this quilt top center (minus the border) in just under 4 hours this past Saturday!  I used 9 different fat quarters and just over a yard of black fabric for the center of the quilt.  The border was also just over a yard of black fabric.

This quilt could be made with a layer cake instead of the 9 fat quarters that I used.  I'm pretty excited about using my fat quarter stash this year.  I think the black and white of this quilt gives a super modern look! I added the border to make the quilt more lap sized versus a baby quilt.  It would have been just as easy to make more blocks and make the quilt larger, but I didn't have enough fat quarters to make that work.  I also flipped the contrast of the quilt from when I designed it and I love how it turned out!
