An Oldie

 I started this quilt at a workshop with Krista Hennebury back in 2017. She came to our local modern guild and presented her "Speed Date with Improv" workshop. This top was my result, after playing at the workshop and then heading home to put it all together into a somewhat pleasing arrangement.  And then it sat.

And sat.

And now, 9 years later, it is QUILTED! 

You can see a few things changed after the original photo was taken.  But the finished top has been hanging in my closet for years.  Matching backing & binding was easy, even 9 years later, because Kona White is pretty standard.   It came out of the closet this week to play with some new thread.


A study in red, white & black, I did a lot of ruler work

A bit of free motion



And some fancy feathers for a bit of variety.
