Okay, you would think that all the way back in September we knew graduation was coming and could have started planning then.....but we didn't. Now, my colleague and I want to make a quilt for our special grad student.
Here's the plan:
I will piece a top
She will applique a full-size silhouette of his guitar on it
We will sandwich, quilt and bind it
Fabric ideas:
psychedelic, wild colours in a crazy block pattern
or red blocks with black sashing
HERE'S what I need from you - What would you do if you were making a quick quilt top that would provide a good host background to a large silhouette?
This boy's favourite colour is black, music is death metal, guitar is "rocker" style. We plan for this to be single-size - basically large enough to lay a guitar nicely across on a diagonal.
