This quilt was a quilt kit picked up on our 2014 summer road trip through Paducah, Kentucky... Of course I visited the renowned Hancocks of Paducah. The best way to convince my husband that I "needed" a quilt kit was to pick one of his own heart. As an amateur radio operator, who could possible say no to a pattern called "Morse Code"? I finished piecing this for my husband on Field Day weekend this summer (2015) when lots of Ham's around the country are flexing the radio frequency bands. Consider this my CQ.. CQ. It doesn't say much, E, A, ?, !... maybe I just left the rest unsaid. The piecing is great for 2 1/2" Jelly roll strips. These were Tonga Treats Batiks. I quilted it using a pattern called "Funky Fans".
