Another quilt from the Art Quilt series or classes.
I had completed this quilt for one of the assignments from Cyndi Souder’s Art quilt class series. (Moonlighting Quilts).
I really wanted to work with a different form instead of a square or a rectangle…. So I used a triangle. I entitled this work “BAM” as a nod to Emeril Lagasse and his series of cooking shows. I wanted the pieces to feel like they were jumpiing out of the quilt – my first foray into doing some 3D quilting.
The detail picture above shows my quilting on the centre of my explosion of colour. I really had fun with this quilt (I say this a lot don’t I?)
So what did I learn? I love orange. I really do. Orange and purple are my favourite colours. They have been for a number of years, and they continue to be. I really love colour. Bright colours. I look at my stash, and it reads just like that.
I learned that I love to experiment with some fun quilting shapes.
And, I pushed myself out of my comfort zone. Continuously with Cyndi’s classes. I thank you Cyndi for that. Wish I could still be taking your series of classes – even remotely. We have to figure out how to skype for it!
Hope your Christmas preparations are coming along. Mine – have hit a bit of a stalemate – I’m having a hard time getting motivated for wrapping up the few gifts I have to wrap up. Everything will get done – I’m just honing my procrastination skills. Join me?
Great Scott Quilting
