Blogger Quilt Festival - Color Splash Quilt

This quilt I made as a shop sample for Bits N Pieces, if you're local you can stop by and see the quilt hanging in the shop sewing center :-). I have blogged about this quilt here and here.
Here are some pictures. My favorite part of the quilt was trying to mimic Angela Walters, I absolutely love how she quilts the negative space. This was a big milestone for me since this was the first time for me to user the ruler for straight line quilting on the long arm machine.

Here are some pictures to enjoy:

    Love how it's off centered and the use of the chevron fabric in the slices.

Here are some of pictures of the Paisley FMQ on my Shades of Blue quilt: Paisley FMQ with Circles - you see on the first block I tried to mix paisley with circles Paisley FMQ Paisley FMQ The past week was really productive for me. Finally my sewing machine started behaving and the quilting went really smooth. I almost quilted away 3 blocks. Just 2 more blocks to quilt approximately. I can't wait to finish this quilt soon. I was in a flow this week with FMQ, but did have stop and work on my piecing my Groovy quilt and work on the UFO. Which is always good. Here is pic of the whole quilt, I would love to make one in girl colors ;): Shades of Blue Quilt - almost done!
