This must be my week for using some of my stash. Our quiilt guild, Genessee Valley Quilt Club, has an on-going project of donating Comfort Quilts to local hospitals, nursing homes, etc. I always try to make a few quilts each year. Here is my latest:
It was really fairly simple to make and, once again, came out of my stash. The pattern is Bento Box. I had used it before to make a quilt for my son. This time I simply gathered some of my stack of random 'busy' pattern fabrics and then look for some solid color complements. You simply pair light and dark fabrics and then cut and sew.
If you like the pattern, you can find it on Tracey Brookshier's website.

Doncha just love the 'fractured 9-patch' technique? :-) I used it for one of my quilts for Japan last spring. Such fun -- and a great way to use up stash, and 'charm packs'!
