King size quilt as you go
I make the scrappiest mishmash quilts I have ever seen, but I do enjoy making and finishing them. This one is gifted and I hope it will work out for them. Quilting done on an old Kenmore that is literally falling apart, using Mono Poly monofilament thread, and done as quilt as you go. It is reversible, and it ended up 96 inches by 110 inches. So pretty big for me.
Thanks for checking it out.

Scrappy meets modern! I'm always a fan of scrappy. The design you've put together reminds me of the graphic trend that is so popular in modern quilting right now. Something interesting to look at everywhere you look. Well done!

I was hoping that the purple and white blocks were a little calming and not so busy.

It took me about 10 weeks of hit and miss sewing. Cutting those pieces and putting back together is time intensive for me, and I am not known to be particularly efficient. I grab as I go, so nice to hear that the colors are totally crazy and incohesive. Thank you.
