Designed by Jean Ann Wright using Love and
Harmony Flannel collection by Faye Burgos
Faye Burgos' cozy flannel, soft tonal pinks and message
of comfort and support come together beautifully in Jean Ann
Wright's quilt design. Vary the number of blocks to size it up
for bed-sized comfort, or down for a small lap quilt, in time
for October's many charitable "pink" events.
Skill level: Beginner
Finished Quilt Size: 78" x 78"
Block Count & Size: 9 Comfort Blocks - 18" x 18"
