I kinda love the bento box pattern. I don’t know if you can tell from my other quilts here here and here. Oh wait- here too.
I have never made one for myself, but I think that will be coming soon. I am having trouble giving this one away. But I did tell the bride it was coming, so I don’t have much choice. I was trying to keep it a secret, but the wedding is tomorrow so the chances she is checking my wee website today are pretty slim.
I am so relieved to have this quilt done! So many projects to get working on, family arriving soon and our annual huge July 4th party next weekend. July 5th I will be hiding out for a while to prepare for my “Artist of the Week” table at the Lansdowne Farmers Market, July 25th. I am planning to relax in August!
so pretty!
i think I wanna make a bento box quilt… looks complicated, but isnt… am I right?

As long as you are okay with less than perfect matching seams- it is pretty easy. The first few times I did this pattern I tried really hard to have all the points match but wasted a lot of energy ripping out seams. This one I tried to go with the flow a little more (mostly because I had a deadline) and if you look closely you can see that there are a lot of points that don’t match.

Stumbled across your website today looking at pictures of bento box quilts. This one (and all the rest!) are beautiful! Thanks for sharing them.

[...] I also really liked the clean lines of this quilt I found at this website. [...]
