New Camden Road Quilt

In honor of the Fat Quarter Frenzy digital quilt pattern bundle that is now on sale, I thought that I would make a new version of my Camden Road quilt that is part of the bundle.

I hosted a quilt along for the Camden Road pattern many years ago and I will admit that I never finished my quilt during the quilt along.  I had all of the pieces cut out and the flying geese made and then had to put the quilt on hold.  

I am so excited that I can cross this new version of Camden Road off my in-progress quilt list :)

I made this new, throw sized version of Camden Road using a bundle of older Maureen Cracknell for Art Gallery Fabrics combined with some Moda gray and white solids.

For the quilting, I used Aurifil Dove, a really soft gray thread in a paisley design.  

 For the backing, I did not really have any yardage that worked and almost purchased some wide back fabric for the backing, but instead decided to use my stash.

I had a lot of large scale prints from Maureen Cracknell that I loved, but had trouble using in my quilts.  It took some extra time, but I pieced those prints together into the backing.  I do not love making a pieced backing, but I do love a pieced backing.

Here is a close up with the binding, another Marueen Cracknell print.

Here is the original cover quilt and more information about the pattern:

I hope you enjoyed seeing my finally finished Camden Road quilt.  The colors remind me of fall so I am going to get the quilt washed and on my couch to snuggle with :)
