No. 13

No. 13

42" x 42"

This is the quilt that is made from the other half of the blocks I used to make No. 12. I was curious how it would look with the blocks slightly removed from each other, so I moved them apart on the design wall.

I really like how much lighter the quilt feels. Next up was to make the white sashing for the new arrangement.

And, I am always fascinated by how much a quilt shrinks after sewing the seams! 

And, for the quilting, I opted to use a warm thread color in one direction, and a cool thread color in the other direction. For all the angst of choosing quilting threads, I still maintain, that it does not really matter that much. In this piece you can see the quilting design and the texture, but the thread colors don't really show up. 

And last, a photo of my quilt, in the wild! ha ha!
