Christa Watson recently held a QAL (quilt-along) of her pattern Dot 'N' Dash, from her book Piece and Quilt With Precuts. Since I had the book and I love the quilt, I jumped right in!
I made my version from a small curated jelly roll I picked up on clearance at a LQS. It was made from a mixture of fabric lines teamed up together.
I quilted it with my favorite modern Figure 8 quilting:
I made mine longer than the pattern and it finishes at 60" X 84". The backing is this sweet x-wide backing fabric from Moda:
I added a number of my own jelly roll strips cut from stash in turquoise, orange and grey color families.
The background is Grunge "White Paper".
Grace and peace!!! ~Nancy

Looking great. How good to have the fabrics already selected for you and be able to jump right in.
ReplyDeleteIt turned out so nice. I have half of my blocks done. Now to the next set.

Nancy, it turned out perfect. I love that grunge for the background.
ReplyDeleteLovely quilt and great easy design. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI didn't get to tell you this yesterday, but I love this quilt! The colors are fantastic and, of course, your quilting is tops! The four of us need to do that again; I thought it was fun to meet up and enjoy the Quarter Inch together.
ReplyDeleteOh I love your Dot Dot Dash quilt! It's so beautiful! I like that you added other fabric into the curated roll and personalized it. I've yet to quilt mine ... I somehow forgot about it. Oops.
ReplyDeleteFun and modern! I love those figure 8s. They're perfect for the rectangular blocks on this super quilt. Congrat on the finish :)
