Modern Quilt, Again
July 18th, 2008
This is the pattern I made for my Gee’s Bend-inspired quilt. It has 16 of the bricklayer-type squares and then some lazy-girl strips. I really like large punches of white in quilts.

Knowing me, I probably won’t start that until it’s cold, so if you’re tired of me talking about this quilt yet, that’s good news!
We’re planning on heading to the Bite of Seattle food festival this weekend and maybe hitting the beach if it’s sunny. I submitted my story and sample to Sew Simple. Yay!

Your quilt looks like its going to turn out great! I’m also in the process of making my mod quilt. If only there were more hours in the day!
Take care,
