Coral Cathedral Windows inner blocks with Sunshine Shoofly outer blocks

Coral Cathedral quilt begun July 2024, sent to MSQC January 2025.

Finished size before binding, approximately 91-inches by 104-inches. Trimmed (before shipping to MSQC)  to 85-inches by 98-inches.  Around a 96-inch (across the front)  square quilt seems best size for the sofa.

Center block design is an online tutorial from MSQC called Cathedral Windows easy (and it was). These blocks are from 10-inch layer cakes (Graceful – Favorites) and Coral Dry Brush yardage.  As always, most painful part of a Cathedral Window block is getting the seams to match correctly.

Each Coral Dry Brush window frame is double stitched to ensure the curve fabric of these frames do not get caught during the MSQC machine quilting. Binding will also be done by MSQC.

Outer blocks are from MSQC Sunshine Shoofly.  Tutorial and digital downloaded quilt pattern.  MSQC  blocks are 17-inch unfinished, I cut and stitched them to be 18-inch blocks.
