Years Favorite

Nearly 100 years ago, the Year's Favorite quilt was published in Farm Journal. It was a dazzling block, with 16 little squares and half-square triangles laid out in a pinwheel pattern. A beautiful quilt, yes. But so much work for those Depression-era quilters! Today, Jenny is recreating that old-fashioned stunner—and she's doing it the easy way with precuts and half-square triangles made 16-at-a-time. The fabric is dreamy, the piecing a delight. This quilt is destined to be an instant favorite!
