Quilt In A Day

Twenty five years ago Eleanor Burns introduced her first Quilt in a Day book, cultivating a quiltmaking revolution. She presented her unique style, a diverse combination of cutting and sewing applications, creating new techniques altogether.




Pinwheels & Rectangles

Lattice Work

QID P1252
Lattice Work Designed by Mary Devendorf, Edited by Eleanor Burns

This lovely quilt is striking and features the illusion of curved piecing using straight sewing!

Approximate finished size: 50" x 66"



Romance Rose

QID P1253
Designed by Teresa Varnes, edited by Eleanor Burns Skill Level: Intermediate.

This traditional quilt pattern has many names: Crown and Thorns, Georgetown Circle, and Memory Wreath. With changes in fabric placement, it is also known as Nest and Fledgling, Wedding Ring and Rolling Stone. The cover quilt was made by Teresa for her parents’ 50th wedding anniversary. Twenty Roses represent two Roses for each of their 10 children. Teresa framed her quilt with a ribbon border to represent her Mother's love of hand embroidery.

This quilt was selected as a Semi-Finalist in the American Quilter's Society show in 2007.

Yardage and cutting charts are provided for a Lap size quilt to finish at 62" x 76" and a Queen size quilt to finish at 86" x 100".
