Modern quilting, like all art,changes, grows and adapts from quilter to quilter as they find their own voice.A modern quilt reflect each quilter’s personality and personal style, and as the movement has grown, a modern quilt aesthetic, a set of principles that define and guide the movement, is beginning to emerge. Modern quilts and quilters:

"Modern quilting has its roots in rebellion, in our desire to do something different..."
I love it... that does define me somewhat :D I am still getting a feel for this newer form of quilting. And will follow this swap to learn more. Can't wait to see everyone's creations. |
This sounds like fun!
|
This looks like a good project for my first swap!
|
I've been designing the quilt for this swap (Love my EQ7!) If I can get it made by the cutoff deadline, I'll submit my info to participate in the exchange.
|
Forgive me,lack of sleep maybe...but, whats the topic of this one, or is it do as we please.
Thanks,the last one was so much fun. |
Functional, not decorative? Note #1? That can't be right. Many of the modern quilts are wall art.
|
This sounds interesting, do you have any examples or pictures you could post?

I went out the to Modern Quilt Guild link that was provided and looked at some of their quilts. I also googled Modern Quilt since I wasn't sure either! Today I picked up my fabric to do this one and one for myself. I designed my pattern yesterday and am raring to go!

These are ones I swapped for the last Modern Art mini swap. Just so you can see what I thought modern was.[ATTACH=CONFIG]360624[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]360625[/ATTACH]

Are we having fun yet? Where is everyone?
|
I am here! I just spent some time looking at lots of modern quilts and have ordered some fabric. There are Flicker groups on modern quilts and minis. Take a look!! I think it will be a blast to create a small quilt on this swap!

Have decided what I am going to make and got some fabric ready, just need a couple of additional pieces to make it all come together. Can't wait to see who my partner is :)
|
I've got two combinations picked out....decisions, decisions...I guess I'll make one to send and one to keep!!!:)
|
I spent most of yesterday cutting, sewing and quilting my MM. All that is left is finishing the binding. I have enough that I may make one for me, too. This is so much fun! :)
|
Finished my MM tonight except for doing the label once I know who my swap partner is. Woo hoo! I really enjoyed making this and look forward to seeing what everyone has done.

Hi Sallysaidsew, I checked out your blog and loved the pics on there. I am from Montesano so I am familiar with a lot of the places you took pics of. I also enjoyed your sewing tips, etc.
Thanks for the comments on my blog. I need to get back to blogging. I've neglected it for a couple of weeks now. |
Three more days to sign up, come join the fun!:)
|
Sorry, just don't have time right now but will watch for the next one.
|
I am having fun! Already signed up and contemplating my modern mini!! Can't wait for trading to begin!!!
|
I finished up my quilt and it's ready to send, went to get info on what I needed to do to sign up for this swap, notice the sizing and my quilt is to small 3" to small! So I'm gonna sit this one out and will catch up with you all the next time. I could kick myself in the rear!:eek:
