I'm on a roll the last week or so, who knows how long the quilting will take :lol:

My first zigzag, I thought I'd add borders but actually I like it as is. It'll be backed & bound in orange, I can't wait to see how it pops with the turquoise. This is a charm pack called Sugar Pop. I used that method of stacking the squares, stitching around the perimeter & cutting on an X to do the HST's. Fast but kinda stretchy, though I'm such a footloose sewer it probably helped me line up the points better than normal. I think I spent way more time pressing than sewing!

And my scrappy version of Oh Fransson's New Wave quilt. I ran out of yellows so mine is smaller than the original, I did go through a ton of scraps & sorted them all by color though. Totally forgot my oranges so it'll also be backed in orange. I know lots of edgy/goth people so yes, there are a few skull, tattoo, etc prints in it, along with a cowboy print & some guitars (that was a precious scrap I was thrilled to include!). Oh, and I'm leaving it that shape & binding on the bias, I think that'll be the coolest touch.

I'm hand quilting on one of my Central Park quilts so that'll be it for a few days. Thanks for peeking :mrgreen:

Oh I love them both! I have that New Wave pattern and have yet to tackle it, waiting for the right occasion. I LOVE the colors in the zig zag!
