In January the STLMQG challenged the guild to finish their works in progress in a year long challenge. I usually don't have projects that are unfinished so I chose to use some of my older material to make a quilt. I had the backing material ( Center City by Jay McCarroll) for a few years and loved the colors. I finally found a pattern that inspired me in the Generation Q Magazine. The Art Gallery Fabric Staff had a pattern called Modern Log Cabin in the Jan./ Feb. 2014 issue. I really just used the pattern for inspiration and added my own touch. The quilting is all straight line in squares. The Quilt finished at 60 x 60 My quilt will be at the International Quilt Festival in Houston, October 25-27 2014. If you get to go take a picture for me! This is the color inspiration, Center City by Jay McCarroll. Check out all the stitching on that black backing. I had to pack the quilt and try not to get creases, hope it worked!
