Happy quilt day to me


It's my party, and I can quilt if I want to! Today I'm celebrating a birthday, and in honour of that day, I'm showing off my latest finish, influenced by Gwen Marston and the huge bin of solids in my sewing room.

Top left is the back, complete with free-pieced letters in fuchsia no less for the label, and strip pieced. Below left is the centre square within a square, Amish-style, also with free-pieced letters.
Above are some closeups of the quilting and the borders. Below is the whole thing, measuring 18.5 by 18.5. It looked great hanging in my hallway with its golden yellow walls, but that's not where it lives now.

That's right, it lives in Florida with Tonya! She's been such a cheerleader of my work, so I made a quilt just for her. (As you can see, I couldn't decide on a name, so it has three. Take your pick.)
