The Picnic Plaid Quilt in Forget Me Not + Preorder a Quilt Kit! from Busy Hands Quilts

The Picnic Plaid quilt pattern is now in the shop!  This quilt pattern is a twist on the traditional Granny's Square block; it's unique in that it's completely strip pieced with very few bias edges to work with.  That's a win!  Plus, every other block is an outline of the Granny's Square block which lends to the plaid-look of the design.  

This design works with so many fabric styles from farmhouse to modern.  I'm loving the farmhouse look of the fabrics in this quilt.
