Several months ago I was asked to participate with the Fat Quarter Shop in the Classic and Vintage quilt block series. This month they are showcasing the Bear Paw block.
I opted to make 4 of them and use it on my table. I love the classic colors of cheddar and red and tried to use contemporary colors and patterns to mimic that vintage combination.
Here's a close up.
I kept the quilting simple and did crosshatching.
I found this adorable backing that fit perfectly with the front. (too bad I couldn't get it to stay upright!)
Isn't it great!?
You can get the free pattern from fat Quarter shop right HERE. Try it, you'll like it!

Looks beautiful Lori and what fun fabric on the back!
ReplyDeleteThe cheddar and red look fabulous together, not something I would have thought of. And I love that bear paw block.

ReplyDeleteI like the Fat Quarter Shop's videos. I will watch this one later. I like the fabrics you chose for your quilt.
ReplyDeleteNice job, Lori. Your quilt truly looks like an antique!
ReplyDeleteYour little quilt is delightful! It definitely has a vintage look. I love the orange polka dot :0)
ReplyDeleteMade my first bear paw block this year, and fell in love with it, there are more in my future!
ReplyDeleteWhat a happy quilt! I love the orange! this must be one of my favorite blocks. I bought a pattern during my follow the pattern years. never quite made it. You may have inspired me to pull out my tangerine orange fabrics!

ReplyDeleteWhat a great quilt! Love the combination of colors you used in it!
ReplyDeleteLove it Lori! I've always meant to make another BP quilt one day - I like 4 blocks for a table -perfect
