Bloggers Quilt Festival





Well, here it is the last day to enter, and thanks to encouragement from other blogger friends, I decided to enter the Bloggers Quilt Festival.  I am entering my Urban Nine Patch that I made with a QAL hosted by Jenny earlier this year.
Urban Nine Patch Quilt.


I did quarter inch cross hatching in each block, and I love the texture it created.

 I have a new love for yellow and grey together, and had been collecting fabrics for a while when QAL started.  Most of these photos are repeats, so I apologize to those who have seen them all before.
I continued the quilting into the border,  


Solid grey backing shows off the quilting in a new perspective.

Now I am going to check out all the new additions to the Festival and be filled with ideas and inspiration.
Have fun looking at all the amazing quilts, and thanks for looking at mine, I appreciate it.

  1. ohh my goodness! This is fabulous - I love your colour combination and your quilting is just spectacular - 1/4" cross hatching - yikes, but you're right, it is wonderful texture. Love the perspective from the back where you really get to admire that quilting.
