Upcountry Quilt Kit – Featuring Sketchbook 21 by Marcia Derse

The Upcountry Quilt is a bold, graphic stunner that blends flying geese, angular blocks, and color flow to create a landscape of modern movement. It's a patchwork adventure designed to showcase a large mix of fabrics without ever feeling busy.
