The quilt has fifteen blocks, each measuring 16-1/2 inches, and the size of the finished quilt is 98 1/2″ × 98 1/2". Gay Bomers has carefully documented each block, including the unique quilting designs, and has created full size patterns that are provided with a color photo from the antique quilt. The block patterns are available in the Sentimental Stitches online shop.
Beyond The Cherry Trees was the first project in the "Polka Dot Garden" series. Gay Bomers says: "The Polka Dot Garden is a series of projects that touch my heart and feed my hunger for all things polka dot. Some will be large, some small, some quilts, some not. I promise they'll all be fun!"
