Puzzle Quilt

Each year the Giant Steps Organization has an auction to help raise money for their program.  Some of my grandchildren have benefited from this group so I like to donate a quilt each year.  The puzzle is a symbol for the autism condition, so I like to choose a different puzzle quilt each year.

This year I chose to cut the puzzle pieces out using a Big shot and a puzzle die.  I ironed on fusible first, then cut the puzzle pieces then ironed them onto the blocks.  After the quilt top was finished I quilted the top using a meander stitch making sure I would catch each of the pieces.  The quilt is quite a bit brighter than the picture shows.  I hope this will be a great addition to the auction.
