Shirley Anne’s Heart

Chattanoooga Choo Choo

Posted By drsao on June 25, 2009

I have cut over 500 2 1/2 squares this week and now I am having fun putting the pieces back together. I cut some 2 1/2 and 4 1/2 inch strips for a future August Cole CUTTING BEE – and then realized that my fabric wasn’t pre-washed (I personally never wash the fabric first.) SOOO…..I decided to just add some more fabric and try to use up a drawer full of pink stash and make a quilt. So here are the fruits of my labors so far…..my Chattanooga Choo Choo in progress.

I think this might be a Fons and Porter pattern – but I don’t think the book is available any longer. I got it at Augusta Cole’s Cutting Bee this January…..and if you want to have LOTS OF FUN – and if you live in the Richmond, VA area – don’t miss it. It was January 31st this year…..it might be around the same time in 2010. Augusta Coles’s website is on my sidebar! 🙂
