The Anchor: Fabric Choices

A friend of mine asked me to make a quilt for her friend to mark a big occasion. She asked if I could make Tula Pink's Anchor Quilt in pink and blue.

I spent over an hour at Cottenseed Glory picking out fabrics until I found the perfect collection of prints.

 I added both some Kaffe Fasset and some Tula Pink prints to the stack.

 This quilt design is going to challenge me but I think it will be a great finish. I didn't tally the number of 2" squares I cut, but there were many.

I'm using the tools Sam Hunter provides on her webpage to track my time for this project. I've seen several wonderful quilt designers/creatives share the cost in time of making a quilt and I want to use this one as my study.

I hope to include several posts cataloging the progress I'm making on this project.
