I started this quilt a couple-few years ago, never posted progress shots, barely mentioned it in a to finish list, then eventually quilted it, Instagrammed some shots and never blogged it.
WHEW.
So.
Here’s my official record.
With the Fast Forward pattern from Julie Herman picked up at my local quilt shop, I paired it with a really cute jelly roll whose line I can’t remember. Also purchased at my local shop. Back in 2013.
I paired it with a brown solid, since I liked the dark effect on the pattern cover. I also had lots of brown to use.
For the back, I picked out a matching light blue, just to break up the brown.
Eventually I stared at it long enough to figure out how I wanted to quilt it. (that was last summer)
I used a dot to dot sort of technique, with radiating lines. I did mark main lines to the middle of the strips. In the print parts, I did a FMQ loop de loop.
Then I put it in my Etsy shop. It’s looking for a home.
I might make this again, but different, maybe a light background? There’s another pattern that looks similar, but the pieced prints and solids are reversed.
