Aunt Susan's Quilt

So, looking back on this, I made four quilts in four months. And that's insane. But I guess that's what happens when you move to a new city and know like 6 people. Anyway, this is quilt #3. I decided to make a nice big lap quilt for my aunt's birthday and for Christmas. I knew she'd prefer a more traditional look, and I'd been wanting to try a more traditional kind of pattern anyway, so I decided to give granny squares a shot. I picked out Lida Enche's Painted Summer because she had a hydrangea print, which is a flower that I know my aunt loves. The nice ladies at Pink Chalk paired it with Michael Miller Geranium, and I did the binding in a coordinating yellow.
