Finished! I started this project wanting to use up these fabrics, my stash has grown and it's time I whittle it down before I purchase new fabrics. I have some strips left from where I did not have enough of all four fabrics to make another round or set for more rows. This came from an Eleanor Burns Pattern Zig Zag. I just love her patterns so easy to follow and really this was fun and easy to put together. I was trying to make mine bigger more like a queen size and it did not work out.I got it about wide enough I just did not have enough for the length. I used roughly the equivalent of 2 jelly rolls for this quilt. I don't think I'll ever do that zig zag border at the top and bottom again; that was my idea and not part of Eleanor's pattern her version finishes much more simply.
Below is a closeup of that pesky border. mostly it was just very time consuming and the valley's were a bit tricky.
I quilted this on my machine at home using a chevron pattern.
