I will be making a quilt for my eclectic daughter. She doesn't like "usual" quilting or patterns. So, I need ideas for this challenge! Colors are not an issue, just patterns!!!

Try this, it is one of Rhonda's tutorials!! She always has great tutorial on here!! |
Does she like Bargello ??? Google the book TWIST & TURN BARGELLO. There are a few members that have been making quilts from this book. They have all been gorgeous. The blue quilt is being made by a member of the board. Topic Title is Bargello in Progress. She called hers Sea & Surf being done in shades of Blue for the ocean and Browns for the beach. I made the Blue & Purple one.GOOD LUCK !! :lol:

What about something like this? http://rfvaldes.blogspot.com/2010/03...nes-piece.html Definitely not your usual quilt pattern - flowing curves across the quilt. Or you could do blocks of this type of piecing. When you said eclectic, this is what came to mind for me immediately (this style - I had to search google for the pic)

Maybe have her look at "Modern Quilts" on google images and see if anything strikes her fancy.
|
An art quilt?
|
Check out javahousequilts.com. Such clever patterns. I've done a few of them, and I just love them.
|
do a more 'contemporary' pattern, I love this trend!
|
I have a DGD that likes unusual, I thought I would do a bargello so I will follow this link cause I am interested to know what is said here.
