A traditional quilt takes on a whole new look with a pretty appliqued border. The combination of paisley, plaid and striped fabrics adds to the lighthearted appeal of this lovely quilt.

The quilt is lovely for summer and patriotic holidays, or enjoy it all year long. Rich red and blue are stunning against white, or consider other color combinations.

Many palettes and fabric styles will be just as wonderful in this quilt. Imagine deep hues reminiscent of many of Kim Diehl’s quilts, Civil War reproduction fabrics and even 1930s prints. The pattern has so many possibilities.

Instructions are provided for both needle-turn and machine applique. The rest is straight piecing.

Once completed, the quilt designed by Nancy Rink is 88″ x 88″.

You’ll find the pattern for “Glory Days” in Timeless Traditional Quilts.

It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!
