Venticinque
Learn a new way of piecing a quilt with this queen-size beauty. Although it is based on a traditional block, not one block will be pieced to make the quilt. It is all made from smaller units, which eliminates a lot of bulk at the seam junctions. The quilt is made from several shades of taupe as the main colour with high-contrast pinwheels in orange.
Finished quilt size: 216cm (85in) square
