Fly Away Quilt - Finished!
I am finally finished one of my oldest works in progress - the Fly Away quilt that I started back in 2016! I wasn’t sure how to quilt it for a long time, but once I decided to use straight lines, I was able to get it done relatively quickly.
Quilty Details:
- * 74″ square finished size
- * Using “Fly Away” quilt patternbyHeather Jones, which I started during a workshop at Quiltcon in 2016
- * Used Kona Cottons in Glacier, Bone and Wasabi
- * Straight line quilted on my domestic machine with Wonderfil 50-wt thread
Glad to have this one finished and looking forward to having it gifted and into its new home soon!

“Fly Away” Quilt basted: Way back at QuiltCon in 2016, I took a class with Heather Jones for her “Fly Away” quilt pattern. I finished sewing the quilt top back in March 2016 but hadn’t started quilting it yet!
I finally basted it up with pins so I can get started quilting. Ollie helped… he is so funny, none of these photos are “staged,” he actually just wanders on to quilts or wants to settle down on them for a nap every time they are on the ground!
I think for a long time, I was unsure of how to quilt it - which was a bit of a block to moving forward. I think ultimately I’ll just go with straight lines, because it will look clean and modern when finished – and I know it will actually get done!
