| Still strippin' |
Thought that might get your attention.
I originally saw the design for this quilt in an advert in one of my roommate's quilt magazines. Being the cheap skate that I am, I decided to wing it on my own and give it a little twist. The results were this quilt. Since I did not have the guidance of the instructions I went about this design a little differently. I looked thru my stash to decide the width of the strips and then just sort of started sewing and piecing.
The quilt went together surprisingly quick and I was able to take it to work and pin it that same day. Good thing I showed it off before I actually fully pinned it as I had managed to screw up the flow of the lines and had to rip out and hand piece a large section of the quilt back together. Thank goodness it was a slow day. ;)
Once again I used the tumbling cows on red field for my backing - effectively using up the remaining stash of this delightful fabric. Well worth it for such a bold quilt.
Sometimes you can shout with a whisper. I feel the colour scheme and design of this quilt does just that. I hope the receiving child person enjoys this quilt as much as I did creating it.
