Illini Quilt

        I'm calling this quilt Illini due to the beautiful blue and orange color combo.  It is also my donation to the God's Portion Day Auction coming in June.   

 

       Illini is composed of half square triangles sewn into an offset diamond pattern.  It will make a wonderful large baby quilt or small throw. 

    The quilting on Illini has to be one of my favorites.  The white diamonds are filled with tight neat rows while the orange/blue diamonds are contrasted with a flowing wave.  Then in the offset center diamond you will find a single flower.
     This quilt will be a wonderful addition to someone's home...maybe an Illini fan.
