I Have Gone Modern! Chevrons
 
3 Attachment(s)
I made a his and her lap quilts for a young modern couple that attended University of Florida. So using the school colors I got to play with a Modern Design and test out some quilting.

I love them! I never thought I would like modern but am seeing more and more that catches my eye. Great quilting job

I am really beginning to like the chevron quilts, and yours are no exception. Love your color choice and quilting designs!

Tartan 04-23-2013 07:43 AM

​Very neat! Great quilts and great quilting too!

BeckySt 04-23-2013 07:53 AM

Both are great.

Your chevron quilts and the quilting look fantastic.

grammy Dwynn 04-23-2013 08:02 AM

Lovely ... chevron is on my list.

Old_Rosebud 04-23-2013 08:09 AM

I love them both! The quilting is gorgeous. Did you use an HST method or another method? I am making a chevron quilt currently. A friend of mine 'pinned' (on Pinterest) a method that does not involve HST's and for me that has been much easier!

MamaBear61 04-23-2013 08:36 AM

They are both really nice and I love your quilting.

Nanaof4 04-23-2013 08:55 AM

I love both of these quilts. I am beginning to like the modern look too. Nice job.

Very nice. Love them

Tweety2911 04-23-2013 10:50 AM

Both are wonderful and so is the quilting!

justflyingin 04-23-2013 11:28 AM

Very nice...

I've done the chevron pattern and found it tedious, but still need to finish one more since it is cut out. :( I like your quilting and I do like the pattern--just didn't like making it.

I really like the quilting. Great example for me to aspire to.

I have seen the HST method but that is not what I have done here. It is done by sewing strips, cut and changing the angle when laying it out--VERY EASY! There is a link at my blog, click in at the bottom of the post.

Really liking the chevrons also. Made one row to see how it looked. DH walked in and said he really liked it. That may be his birthday gift.

Very nice...nice quilting choices.

sparkys_mom 04-25-2013 06:40 AM

Very nice. I like your quilting, too. I've finished one and have the top done for a second one. For anyone who is interested, I used a wonderful tutorial that uses fat quarters. They are a lot of fun to make.

That turned out great, nice job quilting. My daughter wants to make a Chevon baby quilt for a friend, did you use a fast method for making the blocks? If so can you share it with me? thanks
