Twister Quilt...Passe or not?
#31
Thank you for all the positive comments! I only asked about the pattern being outdated because I showed this quilt at my LQS for show & tell, and the response was kind of muted. Maybe it was just that group of ladies. I personally like the pattern. I don't usually make the same pattern multiple times but I have on this one. I thought that the graphic nature of the pattern would be good for a baby quilt, since babies do like that sort of thing. The border came together from the scraps created from cutting the blocks. It may be a while before I make this pattern again, but nice to know it's not passe.

I think it is one of the more interesting (that is meant as a compliment!) versions of twister. I like it!
The borders complement the center - and I like your fabric choices.
The center has movement and the borders stabilize it. Nicely done!
As far as the pattern "being out of date" - I think your version is very modern looking.

My thoughts exactly. When I opened this message yesterday, I thought that this is one of the most lovely "twister" quilts I have seen. You used the colors, pattern and finish techniques beautifully.
