Golden Acre
Named after the park on the north edge of Leeds, where the light in late summer goes this exact shade of gold. The squares are set on point and framed with white strips, with a small blue cornerstone wherever four meet. It was pieced over a winter and quilted by machine in straight lines that follow the lattice.
This quilt has found its home. We can make something in a similar spirit for you.
