Thanks Cindy! You’re right about that – crazy that it took so long for anyone (or me!) to notice! Will make the changes to the pattern.

Thanks for sharing this great pattern. I do have one correction – the top and bottom border dimensions are incorrect – too short to fit the pieced top. They should measure 46.5″ wide instead of 45″. I actually cut mine 4.5″ x 46.5″ so they’d be the same width as my side borders. Otherwise the pattern was very clear and easy to follow. Thanks!

I finished this in time for a Christmas gift. Check it out! I only changed the outside sashing size.

Hello, I am fascinated by the name of your quilt. My maternal ancestors were “Sparks”, and in fact have a “lane” named for them at the site where they established a homestead in Cade;s Cove, Tennessee. During the construction of the TVA, the government bought (under great resistance I am told) each individual property and destroyed all buildings except the Oliver family home. That home is now part of the exhibit in the Cade’s Cove National Park. The Olivers fought the gov’t for years and I am not sure if they ever settled. That could be why the Oliver property is still standing.There are 2 churches in Cade’s Cove, my mother’s family members are buried there.
Anyway, that’s why I am curious about where the name of your quilt came from.
Thanks, Ann Woodward

I love the look of this quilt. Thanks for posting the tutorial. The cream sashing you used give this quilt an antic feel. Very pretty.

Yay! I googled “Unisex baby quilt” and this came up. I’m so happy it did because not only did you give me great inspiration… you also gave me a free pattern! Thanks for sharing Alissa… I’ll send you a pic of the final project (it’ll be months from now, but it’ll get done).
