I pulled out a box of fabrics I had purchased a number of years ago to make a Chinese Lantern quilt that still isn't quilted (I should though, it's a very pretty top) and thought I'd use them to make my rail fence (there were a LOT of left-overs, there are STILL a lot of left-overs.) I also pulled out a backing I'd purchased a while back so the entire quilt is from stash. So, it was a pretty good bust!
I used a new pantograph called Filigree from Urban Elementz...it stitched up quickly and I love how it looks..
My friend Becky also quilted-along and made a fabulous version...check it out here.
My contribution will be sent off to Margaret's Hope Chest this week.
Thanks, Amanda, for hosting this very worthwhile quilt-a-long!

Great job. Nothing like using up stash for a good cause. I do like the new quilting pantograph. Very pretty.
Great idea for a lovely charity quilt. And I do like the quilting pattern.
Lovely quilt. I am a big fan of that binding fabric on that quilt too! And the quilting looks perfect, adding a bit of curve to a very straight pattern.
Looks great! love the panto! Was that one of the ones I donated to your stash that was kind of short?
Lovely quilt for a great cause.
