Default Still Working On This - What's Under My Needle

I have been working on this for months, off and on. I don't seem to want to put in the time but it is nearing the finish. I will add borders (of sorts) on the remaining sides, and quilt. This is quilt as you go, so that is a good thing. Really no pattern, just putting together fabrics. No where near as beautiful as the other photos I see here but I am ok with that too.

It is reversible so will be post both sides. Ok, it is a queen size or close to it (right now it is about 88 inches square, not quite but close). I am not even thinking about adding a lot to it.

I hope the white balances all that mess a little. I don't to get a headache looking at it.

Just showing that I do actually sew sometimes...not just use my air fryer!! LOL.

I may end up taking a break from quilting/sewing after this one. I think I am ready for a change of pace.

I like it a lot. I like the randomness of it.

You are right in that the white fabric really helps make this quilt stand out. Both sides are wonderful (even though you did not have a pattern) and look very modern which seems to be very "in" now. I like it a lot! What a great job you did on it. I hope you will use it or gift it because it would be a shame to have it sit in a closet. Oh and I love the colors and fabrics you used. Were they all from your stash?

I think it looks great. Your quilt reminds me of the Gees Bend quilts. I enjoy improv quilting. There's no pressure about what goes where and in the end you have a unique and beautiful quilt.

I like that! I'm liking the modern quilts more and more and that definitely has a modern "feel" to it.
