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"
