Love your Jakob. And the blog. You give me a lot of inspiration!
It is absolutely stunning!!! What a great quilt!! Feels so good hey to have it finished!! Enjoy!
I absolutely love your quilt! For inspiration, I have a photo from a magazine pinned to my bulletin board that looks much like your quilt. I hope to make one like it next year. Now I have yours to inspire me, too.
What a lovely quilt, you definitely achieved the antique look. The alternating light and dark blocks gives it a lot of movement and visual appeal.
Kudos.
Lucy it is wonderful!
It is so wonderful that I want to make one. Any chance you could share your pattern? Or let us know which one you used.
I want to make one with my Denyse Schmit fabric. Drool....

Love the quilt and the name. My son's name is Jacob (age 24) and his friends nicknamed him Jay-kob, so you reminded me of that.
it is beautiful! You must be very pleased.
This quilt is absolutely stunning! I love the muted colours and the positive/negative blocks. Just wonderful!

Love this quilt!
I love this! It is my inspiration for a quilt that I have begun today, just wanted to pop over and tell you. I looked at your blog last night and studied this quilt. I have it as my screen saver. It his me today how to do it with the William Morris fabrics I have. I have 1 jelly roll, 1 honey bun, 2 turnovers and 1 charm pack. I got them back before they discontinued it on sale! :)
So, today I made the first block. I"ll show ya if you want to write to me...
