Introducing Simply Checkered! This quilt top (minus the borders) was made in about 3.5 hours earlier this month. This is the fifth Simply Quilt of the year and the first completely finished one!
The quilt was fun and super quick to make. I was actually concerned that this quilt would be longer than normal and was pleased when I finished the top in under 4 hours. The quilt used 15 fat quarters and just under 2 yards of white. There is quite a bit left over from the fat quarters, but I couldn't make 2 blocks per fat quarter since the pieces wouldn't fit. I'm doing preorders on the pattern, so you don't need to remember to come back to get it if you aren't a Patreon Subscriber! If you want the pattern you can join Patreon and get it at the $5 subscription level or higher and you'll have access to Simply XOXO now and get Simply Checkered next month (or you can pre-order the pattern now and I'll email you the download link when it releases on July 15th)!
