Eventide is finished ... while the photos may not show it, the high humidity made the quilt quite damp before I could get it back in the car.
Chris used minimal outline stitching on this one to let the geometric patterns sing.
This is the back ~ the upper hanging sleeve is to the right and the lower sleeve is to the left. (I saved all the bits and pieces from the strip sets and used them to create the scrappy insert for the back.)
This weekend, Eventide will be hung on the wall in my husband's office ~ fragments of beautiful blue sky brought indoors.Quiltdivajulie

It's simply beautiful, Julie! I have the ruler and all I need to make a kaleidoscope quilt...I just need to push to start on it. Seeing yours all finished may have been the push that I needed!
That turned out so pretty. I love the back. It is a shame it has to hang against the wall. It is like a blue sky and should make everyone happy that is around it.
Blue is by far my favorite color, and this quilt makes it dazzle. Nice Job
It's lovely!
Very nice! My husband works for a large engineering/construction company. He has a painting (I did) of a moose on the wall. I am almost positive he would not trade that for a quilt! Good for you and your BH!
Love your quilt. I want to try that one someday.
Julie, this is so NEAT! I love it. I dig the back, too. I think the quilting y'all chose is perfect, too! I can't wait to hear what DH's office thinks of it. That's so fun!
Very nice and calming.
It looks wonderful! I just love all those blues!
beautiful. pattern, movement on one side balanced with evenly-flowing calm on the other. yes.
Beautiful! Perfect quilt for an office wall!
