Windblown - The Quilt

It started with this fabric pull for a QAL 

that I later decided I didn't want to do.

(a mix of Bella solids, peppered cottons,

and a blenders from the stash)

These were the companion lights 

pulled for that same QAL.

As I went to put the fabrics away, 

I had an idea.

It was good enough that I dove in headfirst.

I gathered my 4" (fin.) triangle-in-a-square die,

a yard of Westminster fabric for backing,

and a golden brown stripe for binding.

Soon I had a stack of triangles

and stacks of right- and left-facing side pieces.

Reminder - all photos will supersize if double-clicked

By mid-afternoon, 

I had 30 blocks on the design wall.

(notice the portrait orientation)

By late afternoon,

I had the top sewn together.

After dinner, I prepared the quilt sandwich

and started stitching organic curved lines.

(thank you, Max -

I'm thrilled that you like 

your new Bobbin Genies)

Batting - Hobbs Tuscany Wool-Cotton blend

Thread - Glide (Thyme)

By 9 PM, the quilting was finished

and the quilt was bound and hung.

(While I didn't use scraps to make Windblown,

I created new scraps to play with later)
