Lazy Gal Variation Quilt Kit
Finished size: 51" x 62"
New from Windham Fabrics--Gees Bend Quilt Kits!
Debby Kratovil has adapted the original quilt designs for Windham fabrics, creating easy piecing instructions so you can make a your own version of this quilt made by Gee's Bend quilter Qunnie Pettway.
The 100% cotton fabric used in these quilt kits are hand dyed by artisans who specialize in this unique trade. Every yard is unique and unlike any other yard. Much like in the original quilts, it is not uncommon to find slight imperfections in printing, making each strip or block a one of a kind masterpiece.
This kit includes the
pattern and all the fabric needed to make the quilt top and binding, you will need
to provide batting and backing.
We're sorry, we have run out of these kits
and will not be able to get any more.
Windham Fabrics is proud to partner with the Gee's Bend Quilter's Collective. Learn more about the Gees Bend Quilters collective on their website: quiltsofgeesbend.com
